Lists in Python
Lists are like arrays which are used to store multiple data items in a single variable.
The List in python is created with the square brackets "[ ]".
Syntax:
listname = ['value1','value2',....,'valueN']
Example:
fundalist = ['funda','of','web','it']
To Print the list, you can directly type the listname in the print().
fundalist = ['funda','of','web','it']
print(fundalist)
Output for the above code will be :
['funda', 'of', 'web', 'it']
To print the values individually, we have to use the forloop.
fundalist = ['funda','of','web','it']
for x in fundalist:
print(x)
Output for the above code will be :
funda
of
web
it
Always Remember :
- Lists are similar to array as the have index position starting from 0. When a new value is inserted in the list, it will be inserted in the n+1th index i.e. the end of the lists.
- Lists can consists the same value more than once.
- Lists can be altered after creating them. We can perform various operations like add new item or remove items from the list. In short, lists are changable in nature.
