Pre-Defined Functions in list--Most Imp

===============================================================
=>We Know that on the Object of List, we can Perform the following Operations
=>We can Get Single Element by Using Indexing
=>We can get Multiple Elements By Using Slicing
=>We can Update Single Element by Using Indexing
=>We can Update Multiple Elements by Using Slicing
=>Along with the above Operations, we can Perform the Following Operations by using
Pre-Defined Functions Present in list object.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. append()
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
=>Syntax: listObj.append(Value)
=>This function is used for adding the Value at the end of existing elements of
list (Known as appending)
-------------------------
Examples
------------------------
>>> lst=[10,"RS",34.56]
>>> print(lst,type(lst),id(lst))
[10, 'RS', 34.56] <class 'list'> 1362827952000
>>> lst.append("NL")
>>> print(lst,type(lst),id(lst))
[10, 'RS', 34.56, 'NL'] <class 'list'> 1362827952000
>>> lst.append(True)
>>> print(lst,type(lst),id(lst))
[10, 'RS', 34.56, 'NL', True] <class 'list'> 1362827952000
-----------------------------
>>> lst1=[]
>>> print(lst1,type(lst1),id(lst1))
[] <class 'list'> 1362827948672
>>> lst1.append(100)
>>> lst1.append("DR")
>>> lst1.append(True)
>>> print(lst1,type(lst1),id(lst1))
