Array Sequence Rev

This document discusses various array based data structures in Python including lists, tuples, dictionaries, sequences, and sets. It provides examples of how to declare and manipulate lists, describes common list methods like append and insert, explains that tuples are immutable like lists but without methods, dictionaries associate keys with values, and sequences allow membership testing and indexing.

Array Based Sequence

in
Python

List - 1

Format to Declare list variable in Python, we


can use a pair of parentheses ([])

Example : shoplist = ['apple', 'mango',


'carrot', 'banana']

To print list's content, we can use for loop or


we can use print command.

Example print shoplist

List - 2

Available methods in list :

append This method is used to append


list's item in the last of item

insert This method is used to insert an


item's list in any order

Sort this method is used to sort the list's


item

del use to del item in any index

Tuple

Tuples are used to hold together multiple


objects.
Think of them as similar to lists, but without
the extensive functionality that the list class
gives you.
One major feature of tuples is that they are
immutable
Tuples are usually used in cases where a
statement or a user-defined function can
safely assume that the collection of values
i.e. the tuple of values used will not change

Dictionary

A dictionary is like an address-book where


you can find the address or contact details of
a person by knowing only his/her name
In dictionary we associate keys (name) with
values (details).
Note that the key must be unique
Note that you can use only immutable objects
(like strings) for the keys of a dictionary but
you can use either immutable or mutable
objects for the values of the dictionary.

Sequence

Lists, tuples and strings are examples of


sequences
The major features is that they have
membership tests (i.e. the in and not in
expressions) and indexing operations.
The three types of sequences mentioned
above - lists, tuples and strings, also have a
slicing operation which allows us to retrieve a
slice of the sequence i.e. a part of the
sequence.

Set

Lists, tuples and strings are examples of


sequences
The major features is that they have
membership tests (i.e. the in and not in
expressions) and indexing operations.
The three types of sequences mentioned
above - lists, tuples and strings, also have a
slicing operation which allows us to retrieve a
slice of the sequence i.e. a part of the
sequence.

Reference

When you create an object and assign it to a


variable, the variable only refers to the object
and does not represent the object itself! That
is, the variable name points to that part of
your computer's memory where the object is
stored.
