How to add a elements at the end of a list in Python

In this tutorial, we are going to learn about two different ways to add a new elements to the end of a list in Python.

Using append() method

To add a element at the end of a list, we can use the built-in append() method in Python.

The append() method takes the element as an argument and appends it to the end of list.

Here is an example:

list =  [1, 2, 3]

list.append(4) # adding 4 at the end

print(list)

Output:

[1, 2, 3, 4]

Using insert() method

We can also use the insert() method in python, to add a element at the end of a list.

The insert() method accepts two arguments, the first argument is index of an element, and the second argument is value that is inserted in that index.

Here is an example:

list =  [1, 2, 3]

list.insert(len(list), 4) # adding 4 at beginning

print(list) # [1,2,3,4]

Note: The len() function returns the total number of elements in a list.
