When we subtract, the number of things in the group reduce or become less. The minuend, subtrahend and difference are parts of a subtraction problem. In the subtraction problem, 7 – 3 = 4, the number 7 is the minuend, the number 3 is the subtrahend and the number 4 is the difference.

In this subtraction strategy, students use mental strategies to work it out in their head by using their knowledge of basic subtraction facts. Encouraging your students to have instant recall of basic subtraction facts will help them in the long run when working out subtraction problems with larger numbers.

The set() function and == operator

1. list1 = [11, 12, 13, 14, 15]
2. list2 = [12, 13, 11, 15, 14]
3. a = set(list1)
4. b = set(list2)
5. if a == b:
6. print(“The list1 and list2 are equal”)
7. else:
8. print(“The list1 and list2 are not equal”)

It’s very easy to add elements to a List in Python programming. We can append an element at the end of the list, insert an element at the given index. We can also add a list to another list. If you want to concatenate multiple lists, then use the overloaded + operator.

Approach :

1. Read input number asking for length of the list using input() or raw_input() .
2. Initialise an empty list lst = [] .
3. Read each number using a for loop .
4. In the for loop append each number to the list.
5. Now we use predefined function sum() to find the sum of all the elements in a list.
6. Print the result.

How to compute the sum of a list in python

1. def sum_of_list(l): total = 0. for val in l: total = total + val. return total. ​ my_list = [1,3,5,2,4]
2. def sum_of_list(l,n): if n == 0: return l[n]; return l[n] + sum_of_list(l,n-1) ​ my_list = [1,3,5,2,4]
3. my_list = [1,3,5,2,4] print “The sum of my_list is”, sum(my_list) Run.

Printing a list in python can be done is following ways:

1. Using for loop : Traverse from 0 to len(list) and print all elements of the list one by one uisng a for loop, this is the standard practice of doing it.
2. Without using loops: * symbol is use to print the list elements in a single line with space.

How to create a list? In Python programming, a list is created by placing all the items (elements) inside square brackets [] , separated by commas. It can have any number of items and they may be of different types (integer, float, string etc.). A list can also have another list as an item.

Python has a great built-in list type named “list”. List literals are written within square brackets [ ]. Lists work similarly to strings — use the len() function and square brackets [ ] to access data, with the first element at index 0.
