How to make a list in Python
Defining a list in Python is really quite simple. All that’s needed is to give a name to the list and then initialize by providing it with values.
For example:
myExampleList = [element1, element2, element3,...]
Initializing a list of strings
myStringList = ["Learn", "python","with","Educative"]print(myStringList)
Accessing elements
Similar to most other programming languages, lists in Python are zero indexed.
For example:
myIntList = [1, 3, 5 ,2, 4]
We will use myIntList[0] to get the first element from the list, that is, 1.
myIntList = [1,3,5,2,4]print(myIntList[3])
Note: You can create an empty list:
lst = []orlst = list()
