Commonly used List methods in Python

Below are the basic frequently used methods of List

list1 = [1,2,3]
list1.append(3)
print('1.Append: After appending value 3 at the end of list1 : ',list1)
Output:

1.Append: After appending value 3 at the end of list1 :  [1, 2, 3, 3]

list2 = [10,11]
list1.append(list2)
print('\n2.Append: After appending list2 with list1 : ',list1)
Output

2.Append: After appending list2 with list1 :  [1, 2, 3, 3, [10, 11]]

list1.insert(5,4)
print('\n3.Insert: After inserting value 4 at postion 5 : ',list1)
Output

3.Insert: After inserting value 4 at postion 5 :  [1, 2, 3, 3, [10, 11], 4]

list1.insert(6,list2)
print('\n4.Insert: After inserting value list2 [10,11] at postion 6 : ',list1)
Output

4.Insert: After inserting value list2 [10,11] at postion 6 :  [1, 2, 3, 3, [10, 11], 4, [10, 11]]

a= list1.count([10,11])
print('\n5.Count: Count the occurance of sublist [10,11] in list1: ',a)
Output:

5.Count: Count the occurance of sublist [10,11] in list1:  2

list1.pop()
print('\n6.Pop: Poping up of last item of the list:',list1)
Output:

6.Pop: Poping up of last item of the list: [1, 2, 3, 3, [10, 11], 4]

list1.extend(list2)
print('\n7.Extend: Append will add as element whereas Extend will add as value:',list1)
Output:

7.Extend: Append will add as element whereas Extend will add as value: [1, 2, 3, 3, [10, 11], 4, 10, 11]

print('\n8.Reverse: List before sorting :',list2)
list2.sort(reverse=True)
print('\n8.ReverseList after sorting :',list2)
Output:

8.Reverse: List before sorting : [10, 11]

8.ReverseList after sorting : [11, 10]

i=list1.index(3)
print('First occurance of 3 in the list', i)

Output:

First occurance of 3 in the list 2

print('To use Min or Max from list, list should not be nested list')
print('Minimum from the list2 :', min(list2), '\nMaximum from the list2  :', max(list2))
Output:

To use Min or Max from list, list should not be nested list

Minimum from the list2 : 10

Maximum from the list2  : 11

print('del and Remove, del take index, remove take value to be deleted from list')
print('Before Del, list1 is :', list1)
del list1[0]
print('Del 0 index element from the list, new list :', list1)
list1.remove([11,10])
print('After removing [10,11] from the list1 :', list1)

Output:

del and Remove, del take index, remove take value to be deleted from list

Before Del, list1 is : [1, 2, 3, 3, [11, 10], 4, 10, 11]

Del 0 index element from the list, new list : [2, 3, 3, [11, 10], 4, 10, 11]

After removing [10,11] from the list1 : [2, 3, 3, 4, 10, 11]
