Note 08: Lists

Lists store multiple values in order.

scores = [88, 91, 79]
scores.append(95)
print(scores[0])

Common Patterns

  • Traverse every item.
  • Track a total or count.
  • Find a largest or smallest value.
  • Build a new list from selected items.
total = 0
for score in scores:
    total += score

average = total / len(scores)

Lists are mutable, so be deliberate when changing them.
