Python Basics
Python List
• List is an ordered sequence of items.
• All the items in a list do not need to be of the same type.
• [ ]
• a = [1, 2.2, 'python’]
a = [5,10,15,20,25,30,35,40]

# a[2] = 15
print("a[2] = ", a[2])

# a[0:3] = [5, 10, 15] list1 = ['physics', 'chemistry', 1997, 2000];


print("a[0:3] = ", a[0:3]) print "list1[0]: ", list1[0]

# a[5:] = [30, 35, 40] Output


print("a[5:] = ", a[5:])
list1[0]: physics

Output

a[2] = 15
a[0:3] = [5, 10, 15]
a[5:] = [30, 35, 40]
Lists are mutable, meaning, the value of elements of a list can be altered.

a = [1, 2, 3]
a[2] = 4
print(a)

Output

[1, 2, 4]

list = ['physics', 'chemistry', 1997, 2000];


print "Value available at index 2 : “
print list[2]
Output:
Value available at index 2 :
1997
thislist = ["apple", "banana", "cherry"]
print(len(thislist))

lists are defined as objects with the data type 'list’:


mylist = ["apple", "banana", "cherry"]
print(type(mylist))

Negative Indexing: start from the end

-1 refers to the last item, -2 refers to the second last item etc.
Example

Print the last item of the list:


thislist = ["apple", "banana", "cherry"]
print(thislist[-1])
Range
• thislist = ["apple", "banana", "cherry", "orange", "kiwi", "melon", "mango"]
print(thislist[2:5])

• thislist = ["apple", "banana", "cherry", "orange", "kiwi", "melon", "mango"]


print(thislist[:4])

• thislist = ["apple", "banana", "cherry", "orange", "kiwi", "melon", "mango"]


print(thislist[2:]):

• thislist = ["apple", "banana", "cherry", "orange", "kiwi", "melon", "mango"]


print(thislist[-4:-1])
This example returns the items from index -4 (included) to index -1 (excluded):
['orange', 'kiwi', 'melon']
Deletion

list1 = ['physics', 'chemistry', 1997, 2000];


print list1
del list1[2];
print "After deleting value at index 2 : "
print list1

['physics', 'chemistry', 1997, 2000]


After deleting value at index 2 :
['physics', 'chemistry', 2000]

thislist = ["apple", "banana", "cherry"]


thislist.pop(1)
print(thislist)

thislist = ["apple", "banana", "cherry"]


thislist.pop()
print(thislist)

thislist = ["apple", "banana", "cherry"]


thislist.clear()
print(thislist)
1 cmp(list1, list2): Compares elements of both lists. 1 list.append(obj)
2 len(list):Gives the total length of the list. Appends object obj to list
3 max(list):Returns item from the list with max value. 2 list.count(obj)
4 min(list)
Returns count of how many times obj occurs in list
3 list.extend(seq)
Returns item from the list with min value.
5 list(seq) Appends the contents of seq to list
4 list.index(obj)
Converts a tuple into list. Returns the lowest index in list that obj appears
5 list.insert(index, obj)

Inserts object obj into list at offset index


6 list.pop(obj=list[-1])

Removes and returns last object or obj from list


7 list.remove(obj)

Removes object obj from list


8 list.reverse()

Reverses objects of list in place


9 list.sort([func])

Sorts objects of list, use compare func if given


thislist = ["apple", "banana", "cherry"]
for x in thislist:
print(x)

thislist = ["apple", "banana", "cherry"]


for i in range(len(thislist)):
print(thislist[i])
thislist = ["apple", "banana", "cherry"]
i=0
while i < len(thislist):
print(thislist[i])
i=i+1
The general form of an if/else statement is import functions from a module:

if condition : • Import one or more specific functions:


if block
else: from math import sqrt, log
else block In this case, only the sqrt and log functions will
be available.

• Import everything the module has to offer:


The general form of the conditional expression is
Expression1 if condition else expression2 from math import *
The * symbol represents “everything.”

• Import the module itself instead of just its


The while statement has the general form: components:
while condition :
Block import math
In this case, to use a function we must use the
range( begin,end,step ) following notation:
y = math.sqrt(x)
print(math.log10(100))
