# sublist method

List<E> sublist(

1. int start, [
2. int? end

])
override

Returns a new list containing the elements between `start` and `end`.

The new list is a `List<E>` containing the elements of this list at positions greater than or equal to `start` and less than `end` in the same order as they occur in this list.

    final colors = <String>['red', 'green', 'blue', 'orange', 'pink'];
    print(colors.sublist(1, 3)); // [green, blue]

If `end` is omitted, it defaults to the length of this list.

    final colors = <String>['red', 'green', 'blue', 'orange', 'pink'];
    print(colors.sublist(3)); // [orange, pink]

The `start` and `end` positions must satisfy the relations 0 ≤ `start` ≤ `end` ≤ length. If `end` is equal to `start`, then the returned list is empty.

## Implementation

    List<E> sublist(int start, [int? end]) {
      int listLength = this.length;
      end ??= listLength;

      RangeError.checkValidRange(start, end, listLength);
      return List.of(getRange(start, end));
    }
