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()

WHAT IS Nesting

 WHAT IS Nesting  Nesting is where we put an  if  statement within an  if  statement using the power of indenting. The second  if  statement within the first  if  statement must be indented and its  print  statement needs to be indented one more time.  EXAMPLE:

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...

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)
