INTRODUCTION

Like a String, list also is

sequence data type. It is an ordered set of
values enclosed in square brackets [].
Values in the list can be modified, i.e. it is
mutable. As it is set of values, we can use
index in square brackets [] to identify a
value belonging to it. The values that make
up a list are called its elements, and they
can be of any type.
 INTRODUCTION

We can also say that list data type is

a container that holds a number of
elements in a given order. For accessing an
element of the list, indexing is used.
Syntax is :
Variable name [index]
It will provide the value at „index+1‟
in the list. Index here, has to be an integer
value which can be positive or negative.
 INTRODUCTION

Positive value of index means

counting forward from beginning of the
list and negative value means counting
backward from end of the list.
Remember the result of indexing a list is
the value of type accessed from the list.

NOTE: LISTS ARE MUTABLE IN NATURE

nested list.
 LISTS EXAMPLE

Use double subscript to fetch the sub

list in a given list.

Similarly, L2[2][0] will fetch you 4 value

L2[2][2] will fetch you 7 value.

 WORKING WITH LIST INDEX

List index works the same way as

String index, which is:
An integer value/expression can be used
as index.
An Index Error appears, if you try and
access element that does not exist in the
list.
An index can have a negative value, in
that case counting happens from the end
of the list.

USE OF append ( ) Method

append () method is used to add elements

to the end of list. Every time new element is
assigned using append it will be added at
the rear side of list
Syntax:
Listobject.append(element)
Example
L1.append(587) OR
element=int(input())
L1.append(element)

Deleting Elements of LIST
 Deleting Elements of LIST

It is possible to delete/remove
element(s) from the list. There are many
ways of doing so:
(i) If index is known, we can use pop ( ) or
del
(ii) If the element is known, not the index,
remove ( ) can be used.
(iii) To remove more than one element, del ( )
with list slice can be used.
(iv) Using assignment operator
 Deleting Elements of LIST

1. pop ( ) Method

2. del Method

3. remove ( ) Method
 Deleting Elements of LIST

1. pop ( ) Method

It removes the element from the

specified index, and also return the element
which was removed.
Its syntax is:

List.pop ([index])
 Deleting Elements of LIST

1. pop ( ) Method

For Example:

Popped element 67 is assigned to x

 Deleting Elements of LIST

2. del Method

del removes the specified element from

the list, but does not return the deleted value.
Syntax :
del Listobject[index]

del method example

 Deleting Elements of LIST

3. remove ( ) Method

In case, we know the element to be

deleted not the index, of the element, then
remove () can be used.
Syntax is:
listobject.remove(value)

>>>L1.remove(60)

 OTHER METHODS

1. insert () Method

This method allows us to insert an

element, at the given position specified by its
index, and the remaining elements are shifted
to accommodate the new element. insert ()
requires two arguments-index value and item
value.
Its syntax is
list. insert (index, item)
 OTHER METHODS

1. insert () Method For Example:

 OTHER METHODS

2. reverse ( ) Method

This method can be used to reverse the

elements of the list in place
Its syntax is:
list.reverse ( )
Method does not return anything as the
reversed list is stored in the same variable.
 OTHER METHODS

2. reverse ( ) Method For Example:

 OTHER METHODS

3. sort ( ) Method

For arranging elements in an order

Python provides a method sort ( ) and a
function sorted ( ). sort ( ) modifies the list
in place and sorted ( ) returns a new sorted
list.
