Creating list

I don't know what this sentence below mean.

For the last member, though, add another list with 2 items in it.

lists.py 
my_list = [1,2,3,'Ryota','Kosuke']

Hi Ryota,

Python lists can hold just about anything... including other lists!

Here's an example:

list_of_lists.py 
my_list = [["first", "list"], ["second", "one"], [4, 5, False], 8, "pythonista", 3948]

So for this challenge, the last item in your list should be a list, just like the first three items of my list above.

Make sense?

Cheers :beers:

-Greg
