+# Create A Slice From An Array
+
+Slices in Go are a flexible abstraction over arrays. We can create a slice from
+an array with the `[n:m]` _slicing_ syntax. We specify the left and right
+(exclusive) bounds of the array that we want to create the slice relative to.
+
+We can exclude the lower bound which translates to the `0` index of the array.
+We can exclude the left bound which translates to the end of the array. We can
+even exclude both ends of the _slicing_ syntax which means creating a slice of
+the entire array.
+
+Here is an example of each of those:
+
+```go
+package main
+
+import "fmt"
+
+func main() {
+	arr := [...]string{
+		"taco",
+		"burrito",
+		"torta",
+		"enchilada",
+		"quesadilla",
+		"pozole",
+	}
+
+	firstTwo := arr[:2]
+	lastTwo := arr[len(arr)-2:]
+	all := arr[:]
+
+	fmt.Println("First two:", firstTwo)
+	// First two: [taco burrito]
+
+	fmt.Println("Last two:", lastTwo)
+	// Last two: [quesadilla pozole]
+
+	fmt.Println("All:", all)
+	// All: [taco burrito torta enchilada quesadilla pozole
+}
+```
