Lists in Data Structures

PYTHON - LISTS

The list is a most versatile datatype available in Python which can be written as a list of comma-separated values items$\mathrm{ between\; square\; brackets. }$

$\mathrm{<br>}$

$\mathrm{Important\; thing\; about\; a\; list\; is\; that\; items\; in\; a\; list\; need\; not\; be\; of\; the\; same\; type.<o:p></o:p>}$

Creating a list is as simple as putting different comma-separated values between square brackets. For example −

list1 = ['physics', 'chemistry', 1997, 2000]; list2 = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5 ]; list3 = ["a", "b", "c", "d"]

$\mathrm{<span\; style="font-size:\; large;">\; <span\; lang="EN-IN"\; style="font-family:\; Calibri,\; sans-serif;\; line-height:\; 115\%;">Similar\; to\; string\; indices,\; list\; indices\; start\; at\; 0,\; and\; lists\; can\; be\; sliced,\; concatenated\; and\; so\; on.</span></span>}$

$\mathrm{<span\; style="font-size:\; large;"><span\; lang="EN-IN"\; style="font-family:\; Calibri,\; sans-serif;\; line-height:\; 115\%;"><br></span></span>}$

$\mathrm{<span\; style="font-size:\; large;"><span\; lang="EN-IN"\; style="font-family:\; Calibri,\; sans-serif;\; line-height:\; 115\%;"><br></span></span>}$

$\mathrm{<span\; style="font-size:\; large;"><span\; lang="EN-IN"\; style="font-family:\; Calibri,\; sans-serif;\; line-height:\; 115\%;"><br></span></span>}$

$\mathrm{<span\; style="font-size:\; large;"><span\; lang="EN-IN"\; style="font-family:\; Calibri,\; sans-serif;\; line-height:\; 115\%;"><br></span></span>}$

$\mathrm{<span\; style="font-size:\; large;"><span\; lang="EN-IN"\; style="font-family:\; Calibri,\; sans-serif;\; line-height:\; 115\%;"><br></span></span>}$
