Lists

Lesson

Lists

  • Data structure
  • Lists contain elements, which can be of any type
  • Access elements using the following syntax: listName[index]

Zero-based Indexing

  • The first element of a list is referenced using an index of zero.
  • Examples:
    • listName[0] gives the first element
    • listName[3] gives the fourth element

The range() Function

  • Creates a list of numbers
  • Use with the following syntax: range(start, stop) OR range(stop) if you would like to start counting from 0
  • Counts by 1 from the start value and ends just before the stop value
