[Tutor] Number of elements in a list

[Nick Lunt]

Hi Bernard,

try looking here for info about lists
http://docs.python.org/tut/node5.html#SECTION005140000000000000000

basically:

>>>mylist = [1,2,3,4]
>>>print len(mylist)
4

:)

Nick.

A very basic question: how can I print the number of elements in a list? I'm
not talking about the elements, just their count...

Something like

print myList.length
or
print myList.count


Thanks
Bernard
