Anatomy of Lists
Lists group items together. Click the parts below to see what they do. Lists are fundamental Data Structures.

Build-a-List
Drag the pieces to create a list named `scores` containing the numbers 10, 20, and 30. This uses Abstraction - hiding the complexity of storage.
List Access Simulator
Given the list below, type a command to access one of its elements by index (e.g., `planets[0]`). Remember, indexing starts at 0!
planets = ["Mercury", "Venus", "Earth", "Mars"]Spot the Valid Index
Given the list data below, click on the lines that will access an element *without* causing an `IndexError`.
Check your selections using the button.
data = [100, 200, 300]List Mini Missions!
Time to code with lists! Complete these tasks. Use the simulator's output and feedback.
Mission 1: Create a Fruit List
Create a variable named `fruits` assigned to a list containing three strings: "apple", "banana", "cherry".
Mission 2: Access the Second Element
First, create a list named `temps` with numbers: `[25.5, 26.0, 24.8]`. Then, on the next line, use `print()` to display the second temperature (index 1).
Mission 3: Find List Length
Create a list named `colors` containing any 4 color strings (e.g., "red", "blue", ...). Then, use `print()` and the `len()` function to display how many colors are in the list.
