Python - Extending a list directly results in None, why?

Question

x=[1,2,3]
x.extend(\'a\')

Output:

x is [1,2,3,\'a\']

But when I do the following:

[1,2,3].extend(\'a\         


        

Answer 1

extend will extend list it self. Return type of that method is None

If you want to union 2 list and add that list to another list then you have to use another way to add.

listB[15:18] = listC[3:12]
listA.extend(listB)
