Moves the specified amount of elements to the end of the list.
- Use slice notation to get the two slices of the list and combine them before returning.
```py
def offset(lst, offset):
return lst[offset:] + lst[:offset]
```
```py
offset([1, 2, 3, 4, 5], 2) # [3, 4, 5, 1, 2]
offset([1, 2, 3, 4, 5], -2) # [4, 5, 1, 2, 3]
```
