    This document provides instructions for a Python coding activity that teaches students about Python lists. It includes concepts like creating lists, accessing items within lists using indexes, modifying lists by appending, inserting, and deleting items. The activity has students work with different types of lists, access specific items, calculate sums of list items, and fix code related to list operations. The goal is for students to learn how to work with Python data structures like lists and practice common list methods.

    Unit II - Focuses on Python data structures such as strings, lists, and range sequences, as well as methods for

    working with these structures. Students will be introduced to data structures and files in Python 3 and be ready for
    more-advanced Python learning.

    Module II – Sequence Manipulation

    String Sequences Students will be able to:

     List Creation  Create Lists


     List Access  Access items in a list
     List Append  Add items to the end of a list
     List Insert  Modify and insert items into a list
     List Delete  Delete items from a list

    Activity 1 List Sequences


    1. Open Your IDE of Choice (Notebooks.Azzure, repl.It or Visual Studio
    2. Open a New Project
    3. Name it U2_M2_A1-XX (XX represents your first initial and last name I.E Mjordan).
    4. Insert your program comments.
    5. Insert a line comment to identify each step.
    6. View this Video – Creating Lists

    Concept: Creating Lists


    A simple lists contains comma separated objects enclosed in square brackets

    emptyList = [ ]

    sampleList = [1, 1, 2, 3, 3, 3, 3, 4, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5]

    List object types are not restricted so a mix of object types can be in single list

    mixedList = [1, 1, "one", "two", 2.0, sampleList, emptyList, "Hello World"]

    Examples
    7. # [ ] review, key and run example
    # define list of strings
    footBones = ["calcaneus", "talus", "cuboid", "navicular", "lateral cuneiform", "intermediate cuneiform", "medial
    cuneiform"]

    # display type information


    print("footBones: ", type(footBones))

    # print the list


    print(footBones)
    8. # [ ] review and run example
    # define list of integers
    ageSurvey = [12, 14, 12, 29, 12, 14, 12, 12, 13, 12, 14, 13, 13, 46, 13, 12, 12, 13, 13, 12, 12]
    # display type information
    print("ageSurvey: ", type(ageSurvey))

    # print the list


    print(ageSurvey)
    9. # [ ] review, key and run example
    # define list of mixed data type
    mixedList = [1, 34, 0.999, "dog", "cat", footBones, ageSurvey]

    # display type information


    print("mixedList: ", type(mixedList))

    # print the list


    print(mixedList)

    10. Create teamNames list and populate with 5 team name strings
    a. Print the list
    11. Create listMix and populate with integers, decimal, strings and teamNames list with a total of 10 items
    a. Print the list
    12. View this Video – Accessing Lists

    Concept: List Access

    Counting like a computer


    To access a list we need to count like a computer, and that means starting with zero (0)

    Lists give an index number to each list item

     first element in a list is index 0


     second element in a list is index 1

    To access the first item in a list use the list name, followed by square brackets containing the index number

    ageSurvey[0]

    Examples
    13. # [ ] review and run example
    print(ftBones[0], "is the 1st bone on the list")
    print(ftBones[2], "is the 3rd bone on the list")
    print(ftBones[-1], "is the last bone on the list")

    14. # review, key and run example


    print(ftBones[1], "is connected to the",ftBones[3])

    15. # [ ] review, key and run example


    threeAgesSum = ageSurvey[0] + ageSurvey[1] + ageSurvey[2]
    print("The first three ages total", threeAgesSum)
    16. Create a list streets, and populate it with the name of 5 street name strings.
    a. Display a message that there is “No Parking” on index 0 or index 4 streets (display the street names and
    NOT “index 0” or “index 4”)
    17. Create a list, num2Add, and populate it with 5 different numbers from 0-25 (use one list variable)
    a. Calculate the sum of the numbers in one complete sentence (refer to the index positions in your code)
    b. Assign a variable numSum for the total
    c. Display numSum

    18. FIX THE CODE (need to add a line of code and ensure it will run):
    print(“ Total of check 3 & 4 = $ ”, payChecks[2] + payChecks [3]

    19. Thoroughly test your code, check comments and then submit according to teacher instructions.
    20. Take the activity quiz.
