list

The built-in list type. Example list expressions:

x = [1, 2, 3]

Accessing elements is possible using indexing (starts from 0):

e = x[1]   # e == 2

Lists support the + operator to concatenate two lists. Example:

x = [1, 2] + [3, 4]   # x == [1, 2, 3, 4]
x = ["a", "b"]
x += ["c"]            # x == ["a", "b", "c"]

Similar to strings, lists support slice operations:

['a', 'b', 'c', 'd'][1:3]   # ['b', 'c']
['a', 'b', 'c', 'd'][::2]  # ['a', 'c']
['a', 'b', 'c', 'd'][3:0:-1]  # ['d', 'c', 'b']

Lists are mutable, as in Python.

Removes all the elements of the list.

extend

None list.extend(items)

Adds all items to the end of the list.

Parameters

Parameter	Description

index

int list.index(x, start=None, end=None)

Returns the index in the list of the first item whose value is x. It is an error if there is no such item.

`x`	required
`start`	int; or `None`; default is `None` The start index of the list portion to inspect.
`end`	int; or `None`; default is `None` The end index of the list portion to inspect.

insert

None list.insert(index, item)

Inserts an item at a given position.

Parameters

Parameter	Description
`index`	int; required The index of the given position.
`item`	required The item.

pop

unknown list.pop(i=-1)

Removes the item at the given position in the list, and returns it. If no index is specified, it removes and returns the last item in the list.

Parameters

Parameter	Description
`i`	int; or `None`; default is `-1` The index of the item.
