Other than append there are a bunch of useful functions you will need to know. Here are a few that you should practice using.
len()The len() function returns the number of items in a list. This is sooooo useful! In fact it’s so useful, I already showed this function in lesson 16 - Lists and iteration.
Imagine not knowing how many items there are in a list and needing to perform some action over it.
fruit = ["Apple", "Orange", "Strawberry"]
no_of_fruit = len(fruit)
print(f"The are {no_of_fruit} items of fruit in the list.")
>>> The are 3 items of fruit in the list.
remove()The remove function will remove an item you specify. The problem is that it will only remove the first item it finds with that name.

pop()The pop function will remove an item based on its indexed location in the list.

In the above example, item 1 (or the second item counting from zero) is popped out of the list.
Sort()The sort function will order items in the list from A-Z or smallest to largest value.
