P. 56

To modify the first item of an array, you will write:
                  Color[0]=“Yellow”


                     Example: To create an array of a sequence of integers between 0 and 11.



                  Solution:  Begin a loop from 0 to 11.

                  To add an item in an array:
                  Append (append() is a method to add an element to an array) every item to the array.
                  a=[ ]

                   for i in range(11)

                      a.append(i)
                  print(a)

                  To remove an item from an array:
                  pop() is a method to remove an element from an array.

                  Colors=[“red”, “green”, “blue”]

                  Colors.pop(1)
                  print(Colors)

                  SORTING AN ARRAY

                  Sorting is the process of arranging items in a collection.

                  Consider an example: Have you seen how tailors arrange shirts in a cupboard, they always
                  keep the shirts in sorted order of size and thus when the tailor wants to place a new shirt,
                  he will place it at the right position very quickly by moving other shirts forward to keep the
                  right place for a new shirt.

                                                         Sorted                                 Unsorted

                  Consider the following array:

                                       4         7        1         3        5         2        6

                  Here, the items are not arranged in any order.
