x = [1, 2, 3]Accessing elements is possible using indexing (starts from
0
):e = x[1] # e == 2Lists support the
+
operator to concatenate two lists. Example:x = [1, 2] + [3, 4] # x == [1, 2, 3, 4] x = ["a", "b"] x += ["c"] # x == ["a", "b", "c"]Similar to strings, lists support slice operations:
['a', 'b', 'c', 'd'][1:3] # ['b', 'c'] ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd'][::2] # ['a', 'c'] ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd'][3:0:-1] # ['d', 'c', 'b']Lists are mutable, as in Python.
