I have a list object. It contains five numbers [3,6,2,3,1]
I want find the sum of the first, third and fourth numbers in the list.

What is the syntax?
You can for instance sum elements #1, #3, and #4 with the flexible expression
The index of the first element is 0 [not 1], etc., i.e.
my_list[0]is the first element (with value 3, in the original question), etc.
