PRACTICAL :- 2
Understand and use different methods of List.
Theory of Lists:
• Lists are fundamental data structures in Python.
• They are ordered, mutable collections that can store elements of various data types
(integers, strings, booleans, etc.) within square brackets [].
• Elements are accessed and manipulated using zero-based indexing, where the first
• element has an index of 0, the second has an index of 1, and so on..

Understanding and Using List Methods


Here's a breakdown of essential list methods in Python:

1. Declaration:
In Python, you can declare a list using square brackets []. An empty list can be created as well.
Here's an example:
Code:
my_list = [1,2,3,4]
print(my_list)
Output:

2. Append:
The append() method adds an element to the end of the list. It modifies the original list.

Code:
my_list = [1,2,3,4]
my_list.append(5)
print(my_list)

Output:

3.Extend:
The extend() method adds all the elements from an iterable (like another list) to the end of the
current list. It also modifies the original list.
Code:
my_list = [1,2,3,4]
my_list.extend(5,6)
print(my_list)
Output:

4.Index:
The index() method returns the index (position) of the first occurrence of a specified value in
the list.
Code:
my_list = [1,2,3,4]
my_list.index(3)
Output:

5.Count:
The count() method returns the number of elements with a specified value in the list.
Code:
my_list = [1,2,3,4]
my_list.count(3)
Output:

6.Copy
The copy() method returns a shallow copy of the list. A new list is created with the same
elements as the original list. Changes to the copy won't affect the original and vice versa Python
Code:
my_list = [1,2,3,4]
my_list1 = my_list.copy()
my_list1.append(5)
print(my_list)
print(my_list1)
Output:

7.Clear:
The clear() method removes all elements from the list.
Code:
my_list = [1, 2, 3, 4]
my_list.clear()
print(my_list)
Output:

8.Pop:
The pop() method removes and returns the element at a specified index (position) in the list.
By default, it removes the last element (index -1).
Code:
my_list = [1, 2, 3, 4]
removed_element = my_list.pop()
print(my_list)
print(removed_element)

Output:

9.Insert:
The insert() method inserts an element at a specified index in the list. It modifies the original
list.
Code:
my_list = [1,2,3,4]
my_list.insert(2,8)
print(my_list)
Output:R

10.Remove:
The remove() method removes the first occurrence of a specified value from the list. It
modifies the original list
Code:
my_list = [1,2,3,4]
my_list.remove(2)
print(my_list)
Output:

11.Reverse:
The reverse() method reverses the order of elements in the list. It modifies the original list.
Code:
my_list = [1,2,3,4]
my_list.reverse()
print(my_list)

Output:

12. Sort:
The sort() method sorts the elements of the list in ascending order by default. It modifies the
original list. You can use the reverse argument to sort in descending order.
Code:
my_list = [3,2,1,4]
my.list.sort()
print(my_list)

Output:
