Combining Classes and Lists
Introduction
A list is a good way to process a series of object as an entity. A list and other features of the Python language provide various tools and features you can use to deal with a list of objects.

The Type of a List
Because Python is an inferred language, when you create a list, you don't have to specify its type, as long as you at least assign square brackets to the variable. Here is an example:
names : = []
To support lists, the Python language includes a class named list. You can use this class to perform and maintain some of the operations necessary on lists. For example, if you want to indicate the data type of a list, after the name of variable, type a colon and list. Here is an example:
names : list = []

print("================================================================") print("Machine Depreciation Evaluation - Units of Production") print("================================================================") estimated_units : int = 100_000 machine_cost : float = 20_000 salvage_value : float = 5_000 period_type : str = "unit" nbr_of_years : int = 10 years : list = [] periods : list = [] depreciations : list = [] # Calculate the periodic depreciation periodic_depreciation = (machine_cost - salvage_value) / estimated_life . . .
Populating a List
So far, to provide the items of a list, we created a list in the square brackets of a list variable. That approach obliged us to specify in advance the number of items in the list. Sometimes, in the beginning, you don't have the items you want in the list. In this case, you can create an empty list, which is a variable to which you assign empty square brackets, as done in the above two examples. Sometimes, in the beginning, you don't know the number of items the list will have. The list class allows you to add items to a list. To make this possible, the class is equipped with a method named append. When calling it, pass the desired item in the parentheses of the method.

A List in a Class
A List Variable
To support lists, the Python language includes a class named list. You can use this class to perform and maintain some of the operations necessary on lists.
Practical Learning: Introducing Loops
It is when you use the parameter in the body of the function that you can decide to treat it as a list. At that time, the parameter is considered to hold a list and you can then use that parameter any way that is appropriate for a list. Here is an example:
def display(employee): i = 0 while i < 9: print(employee[i]) i = i + 1
When calling the function, you can pass a list directly in the parentheses of the function. Here is an example:
def display(employee): i = 0 while i < 9: print(employee[i]) i = i + 1 display([ 495826, 'Shannon', 'Ladd', 15.68, 8.5, 9.5, 10, 8, 9.5 ])
This would produce:
495826 Shannon Ladd 15.68 8.5 9.5 10 8 9.5
you can also first create a list, store it in a variable, and then pass that variable as argument. Here is an example:
def display(msg, employee): i = 0 while i < 9: print(employee[i]) i = i + 1 employee = [ 495826, 'Shannon', 'Ladd', 15.68, 8.5, 9.5, 10, 8, 9.5 ] display(employee)
Just like you can pass a list as argument, you can create a function that takes a combination of parameters, such as a list and a regular value. Here is an example:
def display(msg, employee): i = 0 print(msg) while i < 9: print(employee[i]) i = i + 1 ttl = "Employee Record" display(ttl, [ 495826, 'Shannon', 'Ladd', 15.68, 8.5, 9.5, 10, 8, 9.5 ]) print("==================================================")
Just like a function can use a parameter that is a list, a parameter can use more than one parameter that are a list each. Here is an example:
def display(msg, identifiers, employee):
i = 0
print(msg)
while i < 9:
print(identifiers[i], ':', employee[i])
i = i + 1
ttl = "Employee Record"
names = [ "Employee #", "First Name", 'Last Name', "Hourly Salary",
"Monday", "Tuesday", "Wednesday", "Thursday", "Friday" ]
employee = [ 495826, 'Shannon', 'Ladd', 15.68, 8.5, 9.5, 10, 8, 9.5 ]
display(ttl, names, employee)
print("=========================")
This would produce:
Employee Record Employee # : 495826 First Name : Shannon Last Name : Ladd Hourly Salary : 15.68 Monday : 8.5 Tuesday : 9.5 Wednesday : 10 Thursday : 8 Friday : 9.5 =========================
As always, when you are not planning to use a value many times, you don't have to declare a variable for it. Therefore, if you have the lists you want to pass as arguments, you can pass the lists directly to the function. Here is an example:
def display(msg, identifiers, employee):
i = 0
print(msg)
while i < 9:
print(identifiers[i], ':', employee[i])
i = i + 1
ttl = "Employee Record"
display(ttl, [ "Employee #", "First Name", 'Last Name', "Hourly Salary",
"Monday", "Tuesday", "Wednesday", "Thursday", "Friday" ],
[ 495826, 'Shannon', 'Ladd', 15.68, 8.5, 9.5, 10, 8, 9.5 ])
print("=========================")
Introduction
To assist you in creating and managing lists, the Python language ships with a few functions you can use.
The length of a list is the number of items in that list. To get the length of a list, call a function named len. Here is an example:
types_of_cameras = [ "Point of Shoot", 'DSLR', "360" ] length = len(types_of_cameras) floats = [ 32.00, 44.50, 35.00, 42.00, 48.50, 35.00 ] quantity = len(floats) print("Types of cameras:", types_of_cameras) print("Numbers: ", floats) print('-------------------------------------------------------') print("We know", length, "types of cameras.") print("This list has", quantity, "numbers.") print("=======================================================")
This would produce:
Types of cameras: ['Point of Shoot', 'DSLR', '360'] Numbers: [32.0, 44.5, 35.0, 42.0, 48.5, 35.0] ------------------------------------------------------- We know 3 types of cameras. This list has 6 numbers. ======================================================= Press any key to continue . . .
Introduction to Ranges of Values
In previous sections, we learned to create lists of random numbers. Sometimes, the values you want to use are in a range from a starting to an ending points. Instead of explicitly creating the values, you can use a function named range (actually, range is a class and what we will call range function here is a constructor of that class). The range() function takes three arguments. One argument is required. If you pass the one required argument, you can provide it as a positive integer. Here is an example:
range(5)
If you pass a positive number to the range() function, you get a list of numbers from 0 to that number excluded. If you want, you can assign the range() function to a variable. That variable would hold a list and you can use it as any of the lists we have used so far. Here is an example:
numbers = range(5) print("Number: ", numbers[0]) print("Number: ", numbers[1]) print("Number: ", numbers[2]) print("Number: ", numbers[3]) print("Number: ", numbers[4])
This would produce:
Number: 0 Number: 1 Number: 2 Number: 3 Number: 4 Press any key to continue . . .
The range() function can take two arguments as natural numbers. The first argument specifies the starting value of a range of numbers. The second argument represents the end of the range but it is not included in the list. Here is an example:
numbers = range(4, 12)
print("Number: ", numbers[0])
print("Number: ", numbers[1])
print("Number: ", numbers[2])
print("Number: ", numbers[3])
print("Number: ", numbers[4])
print("Number: ", numbers[5])
print("Number: ", numbers[6])
print("Number: ", numbers[7])
This would produce:
Number: 4 Number: 5 Number: 6 Number: 7 Number: 8 Number: 9 Number: 10 Number: 11 Press any key to continue . . .
When the range() function takes one or two numbers, it creates a list that increases by 1 from one number to the next. The range() function can take three arguments as natural numbers. The first argument specifies the starting value. The second argument represents the end of the range. The third argument specifies the incrementing step from one value to the next. Here is an example:
numbers = range(5, 35, 3)
print("Number: ", numbers[0])
print("Number: ", numbers[1])
print("Number: ", numbers[2])
print("Number: ", numbers[3])
print("Number: ", numbers[4])
print("Number: ", numbers[5])
print("Number: ", numbers[6])
print("Number: ", numbers[7])
print("Number: ", numbers[8])
print("Number: ", numbers[9])
This would produce:
Number: 5 Number: 8 Number: 11 Number: 14 Number: 17 Number: 20 Number: 23 Number: 26 Number: 29 Number: 32 Press any key to continue . . .
Inquiring About a List of Numbers
To perform some operations on lists of numbers, you can use some built-in functions. To get the lowest number of a list, call a function named min. Here are examples of calling this function:
#A list of natural numbers numbers = [ 29, 35, 4068, 50, 611813 ] # A list of floating-point numbers floats = [ 73.40, 279.85, 6058.06, 55.05 ] print("Numbers: ", numbers) print("Minimum Number: ", min(numbers)) print("-----------------------------------------------") print("Numbers: ", floats) print("Minimum Number: ", min(floats)) print("===============================================")
This would produce:
Numbers: [29, 35, 4068, 50, 611813] Minimum Number: 29 ----------------------------------------------- Numbers: [73.4, 279.85, 6058.06, 55.05] Minimum Number: 55.05 =============================================== Press any key to continue . . .
To get the highest value of a list, call a function named max. Here are examples:
numbers = [ 29, 35, 4068, 50, 611813 ] floats = [ 73.40, 279.85, 6058.06, 55.05 ] print("Numbers: ", numbers) print("Minimum Number: ", min(numbers)) print("Maximum Number: ", max(numbers)) print("-----------------------------------------------") print("Numbers: ", floats) print("Minimum Number: ", min(floats)) print("Maximum Number: ", max(floats)) print("===============================================")
This would produce:
Numbers: [29, 35, 4068, 50, 611813] Minimum Number: 29 Maximum Number: 611813 ----------------------------------------------- Numbers: [73.4, 279.85, 6058.06, 55.05] Minimum Number: 55.05 Maximum Number: 6058.06 =============================================== Press any key to continue . . .
A Sum of Numbers
If you have a list made of numbers, to get the total of those numbers, call a function named sum and pass the list to it. Here are examples:
numbers = [ 29, 35, 4068, 50, 6183 ] floats = [ 73.40, 279.85, 468.06, 155.05 ] print("Numbers: ", numbers) print("Minimum Number: ", min(numbers)) print("Maximum Number: ", max(numbers)) print("Sum of Numbers: ", sum(numbers)) print("-----------------------------------------------") print("Numbers: ", floats) print("Minimum Number: ", min(floats)) print("Maximum Number: ", max(floats)) print("Sum of Numbers: ", sum(floats)) print("===============================================")
This would produce:
Numbers: [29, 35, 4068, 50, 6183] Minimum Number: 29 Maximum Number: 6183 Sum of Numbers: 10365 ----------------------------------------------- Numbers: [73.4, 279.85, 468.06, 155.05] Minimum Number: 73.4 Maximum Number: 468.06 Sum of Numbers: 976.3599999999999 =============================================== Press any key to continue . . .
