Take• Take[list, n] gives the first n elements of list.
• Take[list, -n] gives the last n elements of list.
• Take[list, {m, n}] gives elements m through n of list.
• Take[list, {m, n, s}] gives elements m through n in steps of s.
• Take[list,  ,  , ... ] gives a nested list in which elements specified by  are taken at level i in list. • Examples: Take[{a, b, c, d, e}, 3]   .
• Take[{a, b, c, d, e}, -2]  .
• Take[list,  ,  ] effectively extracts a submatrix from list.
• Example: Take[{{a, b, c}, {d, e, f}}, -1, 2]  .
