Python offers a wide range of built-in methods for manipulating lists efficiently. These methods allow you to perform various operations on lists, including adding or removing elements, sorting, searching, and modifying the list itself. Here are some commonly used Python list methods:
append()
: Adds an element to the end of the list.extend()
: Appends multiple elements to the list.insert()
: Inserts an element at a specific position in the list.remove()
: Removes the first occurrence of a specified element from the list.pop()
: Removes and returns the element at a given index in the list.index()
: Returns the index of the first occurrence of a specified element.count()
: Returns the number of occurrences of a specified element in the list.sort()
: Sorts the list in ascending order.reverse()
: Reverses the order of elements in the list.copy()
: Creates a shallow copy of the list.clear()
: Removes all elements from the list.len()
: Returns the number of elements in the list.
