+ | * **len** returns the length of the list <code python>len(list1)</code> | ||
+ | * **append** is used for adding an element at the end of a list<code python>list1.append(64)</code> | ||
+ | * **reverse** is used for reversing the elements of the list<code python>list1.reverse()</code> | ||
+ | * **sort** is used for ordering the list<code python>list1.sort()</code> | ||
+ | * List comprehension is used to create a new list based on existing list elements<code>newlist = [x*10 for x in list1]</code> | ||
+ | * **range** can be used to create a list of numbers<code> | ||
+ | # create a list from given start/end values | ||
+ | list(range(1,10)) | ||
+ | |||
+ | # create a list from given number of elements | ||
+ | list(range(10)) | ||

+ | |||
+ | **T9 (1p)** Using a while loop, print the digits of a number one by one, e.g. 12345 has the following digits: 1,2,3,4,5 | ||
+ | |||
+ | Hint: Use the **%** operator to get the last digit of a number divided by 10<code>12345 % 10 = 5</code>Then perform integer division by 10 until there are no more digits<code>12345 // 10 = 1234</code> | ||
+ | |||
+ | **T10 (1p)** In T9, you (most probably) printed the digits in reverse order. Using a list and a for loop, print the digits in the correct order. You may use the following method to reverse a list | ||
+ | |||
+ | <code>list.reverse()</code> | ||
