Card 1Introduction to Lists

What is a List in Python? What are its key characteristics?

Answer

A List is an ordered sequence that is mutable and can contain elements of different data types. Key characteristics: - Elements enclosed in square brackets [ ] - Elements separated by commas - Mutable

Card 2Accessing Elements

How do you access elements in a list? Give examples with both positive and negative indices.

Answer

Elements are accessed using square brackets with index positions: - Positive indexing starts from 0 - Negative indexing starts from -1 (last element) Example: list1 = ['Red', 'Green', 'Blue', 'Yellow

Card 3List Mutability

What makes Python lists 'mutable'? Provide an example.

Answer

Lists are mutable because their contents can be changed after creation. You can modify, add, or remove elements. Example: list1 = ['Red', 'Green', 'Blue'] list1[1] = 'Yellow' # Modify second element

Card 4List Operations

Explain list concatenation with the + operator. What happens to the original lists?

Answer

Concatenation joins two lists using the + operator: Example: list1 = [1, 3, 5] list2 = [2, 4, 6] result = list1 + list2 print(result) # [1, 3, 5, 2, 4, 6] Important: Original lists remain unchanged

Card 5List Operations

How does list repetition work with the * operator? Give an example.

Answer

The * operator replicates a list a specified number of times: Example: list1 = ['Hello', 'World'] result = list1 * 3 print(result) # ['Hello', 'World', 'Hello', 'World', 'Hello', 'World'] Syntax: l

Card 6List Operations

Demonstrate the membership operators 'in' and 'not in' with lists.

Answer

Membership operators check if an element exists in a list: 'in' operator: list1 = ['Red', 'Green', 'Blue'] print('Green' in list1) # True print('Yellow' in list1) # False 'not in' operator: print(

Card 7List Slicing

Explain list slicing with syntax and examples. Include step size.

Answer

Slicing extracts a portion of a list using [start:end:step] syntax: Basic slicing: list1 = ['A', 'B', 'C', 'D', 'E'] - list1[1:4] → ['B', 'C', 'D'] - list1[:3] → ['A', 'B', 'C'] - list1[2:] → ['C', '

Card 8List Traversal

Write code to traverse a list using both for loop methods.

Answer

Method 1 - Direct iteration: list1 = ['Red', 'Green', 'Blue'] for item in list1: print(item) Method 2 - Using range() and len(): for i in range(len(list1)): print(list1[i]) Both methods prod
