Python: Display the first and last colors from a given list

Python Basic: Exercise-8 with Solution

First and Last Colors

Write a Python program to display the first and last colors from the following list.

color_list = ["Red","Green","White" ,"Black"]

Pictorial Presentation:

Sample Solution:

Python Code:

# Create a list called 'color_list' containing color names
color_list = ["Red", "Green", "White", "Black"]
# Print the first and last elements of the 'color_list' using string formatting
# The '%s' placeholders are filled with the values of 'color_list[0]' (Red) and 'color_list[-1]' (Black)
print("%s %s" % (color_list[0], color_list[-1]))

Sample Output:

Red Black

Explanation:

The said code creates a list named "color_list" which includes four different colors, "Red", "Green", "White", and "Black". Then, it utilizes string formatting to print the first (Index 0) and the last (Index -1) color of the list together with a space in between. The output would be "Red Black".
