How to Clone Element List in Terminal Console using Python

Submitted by razormist on Wednesday, September 11, 2024 - 23:43.

In this tutorial, we will program 'How to Clone an Element List in the Terminal Console using Python.' We will learn how to clone the list elements into a new list. The objective is to safely clone and retain the elements within a list. I will provide a sample program to demonstrate the actual coding process in this tutorial.

This topic is very easy to understand. Just follow the instructions I provide, and you will be able to do it yourself with ease. The program I will show you covers the basics of programming for cloning a list. I will do my best to provide you with a simple method for retaining the elements after cloning a list. So, let's start 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

This is the main function of the application. The following code will display a simple GUI in terminal console that will display program. To do this, simply copy and paste these blocks of code into the IDLE text editor.
  1. def Cloning(li1):
  2.         li_copy = li1[:]
  3.         return li_copy
  4.  
  5.  
  6. ret = False
  7.  
  8.  
  9. while True:
  10.         print("\n================= Clone Element List =================\n\n")
  11.  
  12.  
  13.  
  14.         li1 = [2, 5, 8, 11, 12, 19, 20]
  15.         li2 = Cloning(li1)
  16.         print("Original List:", li1)
  17.         print("Clone List:", li2)
  18.  
  19.         opt = input("\nDo you want to try again?(yes/no): ")
  20.  
  21.         if opt.lower() == 'yes':
  22.                 ret=False
  23.         elif opt.lower() == 'no':
  24.                 ret=True
  25.                 print("Exiting program....")
  26.  
  27.         else:
  28.                 print("Please enter yes/no:")
  29.                 break
  30.  
  31.         if ret == False:
  32.                 continue

This Python script clones a list using the Cloning function, which creates a copy of the original list. The program displays both the original and cloned lists. It then repeatedly prompts the user to try again or exit the program, continuing the loop until the user chooses to stop.

Output:

There you have it we successfully created How to Clone Element List in Terminal Console using Python. I hope that this simple tutorial help you to what you are looking for. For more updates and tutorials just kindly visit this site. Enjoy Coding!
