Python List

A Python list is a mutable sequence type that can store different data types and be accessed by index; lists are defined using square brackets and commas to separate items, and have characteristics such as maintaining element order and allowing duplicate values. Lists in Python provide a flexible way to organize and store sequential data like collections of primitive values, strings, and other objects.

Python List

A list in python is used to store the


sequence of various types of data.
A list can be defined as a collection of
values or items of different types.
Python list are mutable type.
The item in the list are separated with
comma(,) and enclosed with the square
brackets[].
List Declaration: -
# a simple List
list1 = [1,2,”python”,”Program”,12.3]
list2 =
[“Army”,”Navy”,”Airforce”,”Police”]

# print the list


print(list1)
print(list2)

#printing the type of list


print(type(list1))
print(type(list2))

o/p: -
[1, 2, 'Python', 'Progam', 12.3]
['Army', 'Navy', 'Airforce', 'Police']
<class 'list'>
<class 'list'>

Characteristics of Lists: -
The list has some characteristics which
are going to see below.
 The lists are ordered sequence.
 The elements of the list can
access by index.
 The lists are the mutable type.
 A list can store the number of
various elements.

Ordered List checking: -


#example
a = [1,2,"Ram",3.50,"Rahul",5,6]
b = [1,2,5,"Ram",3.50"Rahul",6]
a == b
o/p: - False
#example
a = [1,2,"Ram",3.50,"Rahul",5,6]
b = [1,2,"Ram",3.50,"Rahul",5,6]
a == b
O/p: - True

Lists permanently preserve the


element’s order.

Example: -
#list example in details
emp = [“John”, 102, “USA”]
Dep1 = [“CS”,10]
Dep2 =[“IT”,11]
HOD_CS = [10,”Mr.Rahul”]
HOD_IT = [11,”Mr.Balu”]
print(“printing employee data…”)
Print(“Name : %s, ID: %d, Country:
%s” %(emp[0],emp[1],emp[2])
print(“printing departments...”)
print(“Department1:\nName: %s.ID:
%d\n Department2:\nName:%s, ID:
%s”%
(Dep1[0],Dep2[1],Dep2[0],Dep2[1]))
print(“HOD Details…”)
print(“CS HOD Name: %s, id: %d”
% (HOD_CS[1],HOD_CS[0]))
print(“IT HOD Name: %s, id: %d %
(HOD_IT[1],HOD_IT[0]))
o/p: -?
ERROR!

Traceback (most recent call last):
