+#working with lists
+#follow this syntax. you can store a number of data types in lists.
+
+
+
+#guests=['Satya', 'Bill', 'Marsha']
+#print(guests)
+##getting values in the list is done by indexing e.g. print(guest[-1])- couting backwards.
+#print(guests[-1])
+##print(guests[0])- counting from the start
+#print(guests[0])
+##append- adding a value to a list
+#guests.append('Charles')
+#print(guests)
+##remove- removing a value from the list- 
+##it removes the first value if one value occurs multiple times
+#guests.remove('Bill')
+#print(guests)
+##del- deletes a value from the list
+#del guests[2]
+#print(guests)
+##insert- inserting a value into the list
+#guests.insert(1, 'Tommy')
+#print(guests)
+##update a value in the list
+#guests[1]='Derreck'
+#print(guests)
+##searching a list
+#print(guests.index('Marsha'))
+
+##loops with lists
+##use the len() function to get the size of an array/list
+#current_guests= len(guests)
+#for people in range(current_guests):
+#    print(people)
+
+##you can also use the for loop; e.g. for guests in guests:
+#for people in guests:
+#    print(people)
+
+##sorting through a lists
+#guests.sort( )
