A list is a collection of items in a particular order. You can make a list that includes the letters of the alphabet, the digits from 0–9, or the names of all the people in your family. You can put anything you want into a list, and the items in your list don’t have to be related in any particular way.<br />
In Python, square brackets ([]) indicate a list, and individual elements<br />
in the list are separated by commas.<p>
<p dir="auto">For example:
<pre><code>names = ['james', 'connor', 'jacob', 'bella']<br />print(names)<br />
<p dir="auto">The output will be:
<pre><code>['james', 'connor', 'jacob', 'bella']
<p dir="auto"><h1><strong>Accessing Elements in a List<br />
Lists are ordered collections, so you can access any element in a list by<br />
telling Python the position, or index, of the item desired.<p>
<pre><code> names = ['james', 'connor', 'jacob', 'bella']<br />print(name[0])<br />
The output will be:
<pre><code>james
Lists start from 0, so james is 0, connor is 1, jacob is 2, bella is 3.
<p dir="auto">You can also use strings methods on lists, for example:
<pre><code>names = ['james', 'connor', 'jacob', 'bella']<br />print(names[0].title())<br />
The output will be:
<pre><code>James
<p dir="auto">Python has a special syntax for accessing the last item.
<pre><code>names = ['james', 'connor', 'jacob', 'bella']<br />print(names[-1])<br />
The result will be the following:
<pre><code>bella
