Lists (2/3)

There are several operations available for manipulating lists, same as for string, such as:

  • len() - length of list (i.e. number of elements);
  • list1 + list2 - concatenation (both must be lists);
  • list1 * n - n copies of list1;
  • list.append(x) - add x (one element!) to the end of list (x can not be list) - this one rewrites your list;
  • list.extend((x, y, ...)) - add x,y, ... to the end of list - also rewrites your list;
  • list.copy() - creates a copy of your list;
  • list.count(x) - counts number of x in list.

For example, we can modify a bit our list with several more countries.

12345678910
countries = ["USA", 9629091, "Canada", 9984670, "Germany", 357114] # list with new countries countries_new = ["Brazil", 8515767, "India", 3166391] # add new data (list) to our list using concatenation print(countries + countries_new) # using list method countries.extend(("Brazil", 8515767, "India", 3166391)) print(countries)
