Create a list of strings
To create a list of strings in Python, you can create an empty list and add string elements to the list, or initialise the list with just string elements.
Examples
1. Create empty list and add string elements
In the following program we create an empty list x and add string elements to this list using append() function.
Python Program
x = []
x.append('apple')
x.append('banana')
x.append('cherry')
print(x)Output
['apple', 'banana', 'cherry']2. Initialize list with string elements
In the following program we create a list x and initialised it with string elements.
Python Program
x = ['apple', 'banana', 'cherry']
print(x)Output
['apple', 'banana', 'cherry']Summary
In this tutorial of Python Examples, we learned how to create a list with string elements, with the help of examples.
