How to build a list using a loop python

Question

How do I get items in a python loop to build a list. In php I would use something like this:

$ar1 = array(\"Bobs\",\"Sams\",\"Jacks\"); 
foreach ($ar1 as $ar         


        

Answer 1

This should get you started:

list1 = ['Me','You','Sam']
list2 = ['Joe','Jen']

for item in list2:
   list1.append(item)

list1 now is ['Me', 'You','Sam','Joe','Jen']

If you want a third list, simply define it and append to it instead.

Answer 2

So a couple of things are wrong with your code.

First:

list = ("Bobs", "Sams", "Jacks"); should be list = ["Bobs", "Sams", "Jacks"]

Second:

foreach list2 in list1:
    list3 = list2 + " list item"

should be

list3 = []
for item in list1:
   list3.append(item)
