insert to a list python code example

Example 1: append to lists python

list = ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd']
  print list[1:-1]   ## ['b', 'c']
  list[0:2] = 'z'    ## replace ['a', 'b'] with ['z']
  print list         ## ['z', 'c', 'd']

Example 2: append to lists python

list = [1, 2, 3]
  print list.append(4)   ## NO, does not work, append() returns None
  ## Correct pattern:
  list.append(4)
  print list  ## [1, 2, 3, 4]
