how can i count the items in a list

Question

can you give an example using a sample list having numbers from 0-10.

Answer 1

suppose you have a list

a = [0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10]

now if you want to count the items in your list. you should have a value at your disposal

suppose you want to check the count the number of times 2 is in your list.

a.count(2)

it will give you the count.

In this case if you want the number of items in your list you can just check the length

len(a)

it will give you the number of items in your list.

Answer 2

Syntax :

           list. count(value)

Code:

colors = ['red', 'green', 'blue', 'black']

Return the number of times the value' blue' appears int in the colors list

x= colors.count("blue")
print(x)
Output: 1
