How to Append an Element to a List in Python

In this tutorial, we will program 'How to Append an Element to a List in Python'. We will learn how to add an element to a list in Python. The main goal here is to create a safe way to store temporary data that can be sent to a working database. I will provide a sample program to demonstrate the actual coding of this tutorial.

This topic is very easy to understand; just follow the instructions I provide, and you can also do it yourself with ease. The program I will show you covers the basics of programming for appending an element to a list. I will do my best to provide you with the easiest method of appending any element to a list. So, let's start with the coding.

Getting Started:

First you will have to download & install the Python IDLE's, here's the link for the Integrated Development And Learning Environment for Python https://www.python.org/downloads/.

Creating Main Function

my_list = []
 
print("\n\n=============== Append an Element to a List ===============\n\n")
 
while True:
    ret=False
 
 
    my_input = input("Enter a string: ")
 
 
    my_list.append(my_input)
 
    print(my_list)
 
 
    opt = input("\nDo you want to append another string? (Yes/No): ");
    print("\n")
 
    if opt.lower() == "yes":
        ret=True
 
    elif opt.lower() == "no":
        ret=False
 
        print("Exiting Program...")
    else:
        print("Please enter Yes or No\n")
        break
 
    if ret == False:
        continue

In the provided code, we simply enclosed the code with a while loop to allow for continuous execution of the program. This code is very simple and easy to do; you just append the inputs into an array list using the append function.
