python Collections of Data


Content
• Introduction to List
• Work on Tuples
• Sets
• Dictionary
Collections of data in python
• Python is a collections of data which is used to we can store multiple
value in a single variable.
• There are four types of collections of data:-
1 List
2 Set
3 Tuple
4 Dictionary
List
• List is a type of collections of data which is used to store multiple
value in a single variable
• Create a list using square brackets
• Syntax
list_name=[]
Example:-
color=[‘red’,’green’]
print(color)
Properties of List
1 List is ordered
2 List is mutable or changeable
3 List allows duplicate values
List Items
List items can be of any data type:
list1 = ["apple", "banana", "cherry"]
list2 = [1, 5, 7, 9, 3]
list3 = [True, False, False]

A list can contain different data types:


list1 = ["abc", 34, True, 40, "male"]
type()

• From Python's perspective, lists are defined as objects with the data
type 'list’:
<class 'list’>
mylist = ["apple", "banana", "cherry"]
print(type(mylist))
The list() Constructor

• It is also possible to use the list() constructor when creating a new list.
thislist = list(("apple", "banana", "cherry")) # note the double round-
brackets
print(thislist)
Access Items

• List items are indexed and you can access them by referring to the
index number:

• Print the second item of the list:

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


print(thislist[1])
Negative Indexing

• Negative indexing means start from the end


• Print the last item of the list:
thislist = ["apple", "banana", "cherry"]
print(thislist[-1])
Range of Indexes
• You can specify a range of indexes by specifying where to start and
where to end the range.
• When specifying a range, the return value will be a new list with the
specified items.
• Return the third, fourth, and fifth item:
thislist =
["apple", "banana", "cherry", "orange", "kiwi", "melon", "mango"]
print(thislist[2:5])
Check if Item Exists

• Check if "apple" is present in the list:


thislist = ["apple", "banana", "cherry"]
if "apple" in thislist:
print("Yes, 'apple' is in the fruits list")
Change List Items

• To change the value of a specific item, refer to the index number:


• Change the second item:
thislist = ["apple", "banana", "cherry"]
thislist[1] = "blackcurrant"
print(thislist)
Change a Range of Item Values

• To change the value of items within a specific range, define a list with
the new values, and refer to the range of index numbers where you
want to insert the new values:
• Change the values "banana" and "cherry" with the values
"blackcurrant" and "watermelon":
thislist = ["apple", "banana", "cherry", "orange", "kiwi", "mango"]
thislist[1:3] = ["blackcurrant", "watermelon"]
print(thislist)
Change the second value by replacing it
with two new values:
thislist = ["apple", "banana", "cherry"]
thislist[1:2] = ["blackcurrant", "watermelon"]
print(thislist)
Insert Items

• Insert "watermelon" as the third item:


thislist = ["apple", "banana", "cherry"]
thislist.insert(2, "watermelon")
print(thislist)
Add List Items

• Append Items
• To add an item to the end of the list, use the append() method:

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


thislist.append("orange")
print(thislist)
Insert Items

• Insert an item as the second position:


thislist = ["apple", "banana", "cherry"]
thislist.insert(1, "orange")
print(thislist)
Extend List

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


tropical = ["mango", "pineapple", "papaya"]
thislist.extend(tropical)
print(thislist)
Remove List Items

• Remove "banana":
thislist = ["apple", "banana", "cherry"]
thislist.remove("banana")
print(thislist)
• Pop() method removes the specified index.
