Dynamic Lists

 Dynamic Lists 

Dynamic lists are ways of using a blank list and adding or removing items to it as we go

               Blank lists 


EXAMPLE :

  MYAGENDA = [] 


Append a list

.append will let us add whatever is in () to the list. 

EXAMPLE: 

myAgenda = []


def printList():

 

  for item in myAgenda:

    print(item)



while True:

  item = input("What's next on the Agenda?: ")

  myAgenda.append(item)

  printList() 

Removing Items from a List

how using  .remove will remove what is inside the ().

EXAMPLE:

myAgenda = []


def printList():

  print() 

  for item in myAgenda:

    print(item)

  print() 


while True:

  menu = input("add or remove?: ")

  if menu == "add":

    item = input("What's next on the Agenda?: ")

    myAgenda.append(item)

  elif menu == "remove":

    item = input("What do you want to remove?: ")

    myAgenda.remove(item)

  printList()

FOR LOOP , RANGE

  FOR LOOP  A  while  loop is perfect to use when we  don't  know how many times we want the loop to repeat.  If we have an idea of how many times we want the loop to repeat, we can use a  for  loop to loop code in exactly the same way the  while  loop did.  EXAMPLE :  for counter in range(10):   print(counter) RANGE  The  range  function creates a list of numbers in the range you create. If you only give it one number, it will start at  0  and move to a state where the final number is  one less  than the number in the brackets. In this case, the final number would be  9 .  EXAMPLE :  total = 0 for number in range(100) :   total += number   print(total)

CONTINUE COMMAND AND EXIT LINE

  The Continue Command  The  continue  command stops executing code in the loop and starts at the top of the loop again. Essentially, we want to kick the user back to the original question. EXAMPLE : while True:   print("You are in a corridor, do you go left or right?")   direction = input("> ")   if direction == "left":     print("You have fallen to your death")     break   elif direction == "right":     continue   else:     print("Ahh! You're a genius, you've won") NOTE :  The  else  statement refers to any input besides left or right (up or esc). Since the user is a winner, we do  not  want to use  break  or it would say they have failed.  EXIT  COMMAND LINE  The previous code continues to loop even after the user has won. Let's fix that with the  exit()  command EXAMPLE: print("Let's play chutes and ladders. Pick ladder or chute.") while...

IF AND ELSE STATEMENT

  If Statements    These statements are a bit like asking a question. You are telling the computer:  if  something is true,  then  do this specific block of code. Double equals ( == ) is asking the computer to compare if these two things are  exactly  the same.  EXAMPLE :  myName = input("What's your name?: ") if myName == "David":  What is else? IF  the condition is  not  met with the  if  statement, then we want the computer to do the  else  part instead. Likewise, if the condition  is  met in the  if  statement, then the  else  bit is ignored by the computer. The  else  statement must be the first thing  unindented  after the  if  statement and in line with it    EXAMPLE :  myName = input("What's your name?: ") if myName == "David":  print("Welcome Dude!")  print("You're just the baldest dude I've ever seen...
