Python Lists

 

Python Lists

  • Lists are ordered collection of data items.
  • They store multiple items in a single variable.
  • List items are separated by commas and enclosed within square brackets [].
  • Lists are changeable meaning we can alter them after creation.

Example 1:

lst1 = [1,2,2,3,5,4,6]
lst2 = ["Red", "Green", "Blue"]
print(lst1)
print(lst2)

Output:

[1, 2, 2, 3, 5, 4, 6]
['Red', 'Green', 'Blue']

 

Example 2:

details = ["Maxon", 18, "FYBScIT", 9.8]
print(details)

Output:

['Maxon', 18, 'FYBScIT', 9.8]

As we can see, a single list can contain items of different datatypes.
