Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Suppose list1 = [2, 4, 6, 8]. Create a list2 from list1 using slicing, then append 10 to list2. Show the contents of both lists.

💡 Hint: Visualize the difference between modifying a copied list versus the original.

Challenge 2 Hard

Create a program where list A contains integers and list B is created from A with slicing. Perform modifications on both lists and print their contents after each modification.

💡 Hint: Be clear on how list slicing works and the implications of mutable versus immutable types.
