    on Apr 12, 2016

    Append value

    a = ["v1", "v2", "v3", "v4"]
    print a
    a.append("new val")
    print a
    ['v1', 'v2', 'v3', 'v4']
    ['v1', 'v2', 'v3', 'v4', 'new val']
    
    Env: Python 2.7.18

    Prepend value

    a = ["v1", "v2", "v3", "v4"]
    print a
    a.insert(0, "new val")
    print a
    a = ["new value2"] + a
    print a
    ['v1', 'v2', 'v3', 'v4']
    ['new val', 'v1', 'v2', 'v3', 'v4']
    ['new value2', 'new val', 'v1', 'v2', 'v3', 'v4']
    
    Env: Python 2.7.18
