List Methods (2)
Most list methods will change the list they're called on. Examples are:
.append()
, that adds an element to the list it is called on,.remove()
, that removes the first element of a list that matches the input, and.reverse()
, that reverses the order of the elements in the list it is called on.
You'll be working on the list with the area of different parts of the house: areas
.
