Python | Access List Items
List items ordered , changeable , and allows to duplicate items
List Items are stored indexing manner in square brackets so First item index start from
0,1,2..... so on
list = [ 'mango' ,' banana', 'apple' ]
print(list[0])
print(list[1])
Output
mango
banana
Negative Indexing
Negative indexing start counting from end of the list
-1 is the last index of list and -2 second last
Example
list = [ 'mango' ,' banana', 'apple' ]
print(list[-1])
Output
apple
Range of Indexing
you can set the range of index by start and where to end the range
In Range of Index , the start index is included and the end index is Excluded in runtime
the counting of index is start from Zero (0)
Example
list = [ 'mango' ,' banana', 'apple', 'kiwi' , 'orange', 'graps' , 'pineapple' ]
print(list[1:5])
Output
' banana', 'apple', 'kiwi' , 'orange'
Now , we want only those items its index start from 2 to end in list
list = [ 'mango' ,' banana', 'apple', 'kiwi' , 'orange', 'graps' , 'pineapple' ]
print(list[1:])
print(list[:5])
Output
'mango' ,' banana', 'apple', 'kiwi' , 'orange'
