Getting a Single Element of a List in Python
You can access the elements of a list in the same way as you access the characters of a string: the first element has the number 0, the second has the number 1, and so on. These numbers are called the indices of the elements of the list. Let's look at an example:
lst = ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e']
print(lst[0]) # 'a'
print(lst[1]) # 'b'
print(lst[2]) # 'c'
Given a list:
lst = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
Print the first element of this list.
Given a list:
lst = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
Print the second element of this list.
The following code is given:
lst = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
print(lst[-1])
Tell me what will be output to the console.
The following code is given:
lst = [2, 4, 6, 8]
res = lst[3] - lst[0]
print(res)
Tell me what will be output to the console.
