Indexing list items
Each item in a list has an assigned indexed value. Remember that Python is a zero indexed language, and the first element in a list is stored at index zero. In this exercise, you will practice subsetting single elements from a list.
Lists names and prices for company names and stock prices are available in your workspace.
