#- Not what I expected, then I came to the conclusion that
#- [].append(value) returns 'None', why?
Because it's the defined behaviour, ;)
>>> help([].append)
Help on built-in function append:
append(...)
L.append(object) -- append object to end
It just modifies the object, return None:
>>> l = [3]
>>> a = l.append(5)
>>> l
[3, 5]
>>> a
>>> repr(a)
'None'
