Great video sir.

[@wisdomoregfx]

You are a life saver. Thanks ❤

[@jingersatuh6322]

Clear explanation.

[@muhammadbinuzair2101]

It was really helpful
Thank you

[@sgiri2012]

Thank you for your class sir

[@handle_gc]

This can also be achieved using below code for storing items as string not int.
items = input("Enter multiple items: ")
list = items.split()
print(list)

[@AmanKumar-fj2lz]

Tems??

[@AmanKumar-fj2lz]

No its still a string..
Python3IDE(Python 3.7) running!
enter the 3 digit number234
['234']
Pytho3IDE run end!

@Neso academy Great video , it helps me a lot as usual but what about if we want a list which is a collection of different types of items ? because with the example in the course all the items of our list must be an integer

[@user-xc7uz5xg9y]

Sir, instead of using for loop to input a list we can use split function...
numbers = input().split()

[@lionelfaith3646]

n=int(input("enter the number of elements of your list: ")) #input data from the user and convert it to integer type
numbers=[] #create an empty list
for i in range(n): #iterate my list from index 0 to n-1 and repeat the block of instructions below for each i
x = int(input(f"enter the elements for numbers {[i]}: ")) #store the elements of the list from user in x variable
numbers.append(x) #add each element at the end of the list numbers
print(numbers) #output the new list

[@user-ev5fj1rm3y]

I don't get where the i came from in for loop

[@kaifXD]

@@user-ev5fj1rm3ywe just take a variable i to loop thru.. in this case for loop

[@tecolote8566]

NICE!!

[@alimuhtasham4045]

what about this code ?

numbers = [ ]
for i in range(3):
x = input('Enter the element: ')
numbers.append(x)
print(numbers)

[@_AhmedKhawar]

The input function always returns a value as a string. If we are to obtain numbers then we'll have to convert the type of the obtained item to integer (int) or float.
we can also do,
numbers = [ ]
for i in range (3):
x = input()
y = int(x)
numbers.append(y)
The method in the video is for getting numbers as input and type is being converted in the same line in which input is being taken.

[@pawansaxena1304]

sir i have a doubt
can't we directly use eval function for entering the list
sir i had tried it and also work so why to use loop method

[@fifthamendment1]

Thanks for the vid. Just a suggestion… what if you need to input hundreds of numbers? The user is not going to want take a count of each number and possibly miscount.
Might be better just to input numbers and type END when finished.

[@sagnikadhya3425]

I guess using while loop would be better then

[@internetguy3978]

Please use an ide... Command prompt sucks

[@nesoacademy]

We started using VS Code after covering the basics.
