pythonlist_arrays_and some practice problems
- 1. Python Data Structures LIST ,TUPLES, DICTIONARY
- 2. Lists List is a way to give name a collection of values A list can simply be defined by writing a list of comma separated values in square brackets. Lists might contain items of different types, but usually the items all have the same type. Python lists are mutable and individual elements of a list can be changed. List contains heterogeneous data types
- 3. Lists, which are called Arrays 1.create_a_list = [] 2.numbers_list = [1, 2, 3] 3.strings_list = ["spam", "eggs", "cheese"] 4.mixed_list = ["Hello", [1, 2, 3], False]
- 4. >>> create_a_list =[] >>> create_a_list [] >>> numbers_list =[1, 2, 3, 200] >>> numbers_list [1, 2, 3, 200] >>> strings_list =["batman", "superman", "iron man"] >>> strings_list ['batman', 'superman', 'iron man']
- 5. Python list [a,b,] >>> xlist=[1.73,1.68,1.71,1.89] >>> print(xlist) [1.73, 1.68, 1.71, 1.89] Contain any type -List Contain different types >>> xlist1= ["femy",2.22,"henry",1.89,"Kiara",2.18,"John",1.99] >>> xlist1 ['femy', 2.22, 'henry', 1.89, 'Kiara', 2.18, 'John', 1.99]
- 6. You can access elements from the list from either the beginning or end of the list: >>> numbers_list[0] 1 >>> numbers_list[0:1] [1] >>> numbers_list[0:2] [1, 2]
- 7. >>> xlist2=[["femy",2.22], ... ["henry",1.89], ... ["kiara",2.18], ... ["john",1.99]] >>> zero based indexing >>> xlist2[2] ['kiara', 2.18]
- 8. Type in list type(xlist) <class 'list'> >>> type(xlist1) <class 'list'> >>> type(xlist2) <class 'list'> >>> Each list has specific functionality and behaviour
- 9. Practice # area variables (in square meters) hall = 11.25 kit = 18.0 liv = 20.0 bed = 10.75 bath = 9.50 # Create list areas test=["hall",11.25,"kit",18.0,"liv",20.0,"bed",10.75,"bath",9.50] test1=[11.25,18.0,20.0,10.75,9.50]
- 10. # house information as list of lists house = [["hallway", hall], ["kitchen", kit], ["living room", liv]] >>>print(house[2])
- 11. zero based indexing >>>test1[4] >>> xlist1= ["femy",2.22,"henry",1.89,"Kiara",2.18,"John",1.99] >>> xlist1[6] 'John' >>> xlist1[-1] 1.99 >>> xlist1[-2] 'John' >>> xlist1[-3] 2.18 >>>
- 12. Tuples A tuple is represented by a number of values separated by commas. Tuples are immutable (cannot change values) and the output is surrounded by parentheses so that nested tuples are processed correctly. Additionally, even though tuples are immutable, they can hold mutable data if needed. Since Tuples are immutable and can not change, they are faster in processing as compared to lists. Hence, if your list is unlikely to change, you should use tuples, instead of lists.
- 13. A tuple is a sequence of immutable Python objects. Tuples are sequences, just like lists. The differences between tuples and lists are, the tuples cannot be changed unlike lists and tuples use parentheses, whereas lists use square brackets. Creating a tuple is as simple as putting different comma-separated values. Optionally you can put these comma-separated values between parentheses also. For example −
- 14. Ex. tup1 = ('physics', 'chemistry', 1997, 2000); tup2 = (1, 2, 3, 4, 5 ); tup3 = ("a", "b", "c", "d“);
- 15. #!/usr/bin/python tup1 = (12, 34.56); tup2 = ('abc', 'xyz'); # Following action is not valid for tuples # tup1[0] = 100; # So let's create a new tuple as follows tup3 = tup1 + tup2; print tup3;
- 16. tup = ('physics', 'chemistry', 1997, 2000); print tup; del tup; print "After deleting tup : "; print tup;
- 17. Dictionary Dictionary is an unordered set of key: value pairs, with the requirement that the keys are unique (within one dictionary). A pair of braces creates an empty dictionary: {}.
- 18. Each key is separated from its value by a colon (:), the items are separated by commas, and the whole thing is enclosed in curly braces. An empty dictionary without any items is written with just two curly braces, like this: {}. Keys are unique within a dictionary while values may not be. The values of a dictionary can be of any type, but the keys must be of an immutable data type such as strings, numbers, or tuples.
- 19. dict = {'Name': 'Zara', 'Age': 7, 'Class': 'First'} print "dict['Name']: ", dict['Name'] print "dict['Age']: ", dict['Age']
- 20. Updating Dictionary dict = {'Name': 'Zara', 'Age': 7, 'Class': 'First'} dict['Age'] = 8; # update existing entry dict['School'] = "DPS School"; # Add new entry print "dict['Age']: ", dict['Age'] print "dict['School']: ", dict['School']
- 21. Delete Dictionary Elements #!/usr/bin/python dict = {'Name': 'Zara', 'Age': 7, 'Class': 'First'} del dict['Name']; # remove entry with key 'Name' dict.clear(); # remove all entries in dict del dict ; # delete entire dictionary print "dict['Age']: ", dict['Age'] print "dict['School']: ", dict['School']
