append()
The __________ method adds an item to the end of a list.
an if statement that calls the main() function only if the current module is the main module
The best way to call the main() function of a program is to code
the same as the name of the module
The default namespace for a module is
code the name of the argument, the assignment operator (=), and the default value
To assign a default value to an argument when you define a function, you
name of each argument, an equals sign, and the value or variable that's being passed
To call a function with named arguments, you code the
a set of parentheses that contains zero or more arguments
To call a function, you code the function name and
fruit.insert(3, "melon")
To insert the item "melon" after "grapes" in the following list, you would use which of these methods?fruit = ["apple", "banana", "grapes", "mangos", "oranges"]
