652 Pointscreating a list
it seems like I don`t understand the question, would appreciate it if someone could shed some light
my_list = []
my_list.append(1)
my_list.append(2)
my_list.append(3)
my_list.append("a")
list2 = ["b", "c"]
my_list.extend(list2)

4,700 PointsHello! It seems that a small misinterpretation has happened. And you did a great job so far!
To complete the task you need 6 items in my_list. You currently have 5. It is easy to misinterpret this task, I did it too. There has to be 2 string objects BEFORE you add list2.
I would also double check what you have written in the last line of your code. You need to use another method to add list2 to my_list.
I am sure you will figure it out!

652 Points"This challenge is just meant as a refresher. Create a single new list variable named my_list. Put 3 numbers and 2 strings into it in whatever order you want. For the last member, though, add another list with 2 items in it."
and as a result i get "Bummer: Didn't find the right number of numbers or strings in
my_list!"
