In [5]:

lst1 = [1,2,3,4]

lst1.append(5)
lst1.append(6)

print(lst1)

[1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]

In [8]:

lst3 =[]

for i in range(1,101):
if i % 10 ==0:
lst3.append(i)
print(lst3)

[10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100]

In [9]:

list1 = [1,2,3,4]
list2 = [5,6,7,8]

list1.append(list2)

print(list1)

[1, 2, 3, 4, [5, 6, 7, 8]]

Out[16]:

[5, 6, 7]

2. insert()

To insert item at specific index position in list.

syntax:
list_name.insert(index,value)

In [2]:

list1

Out[8]:

[1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8]

In [9]:

list1.sort(reverse = True)
list1
