Those are great approaches! Another creative way to find the length of list Python is by using the sum()
function with a list comprehension. This technique involves summing up 1
for every element in the list. For example:
length = sum(1 for _ in items)
print(length) # Output: 3
While this isn’t as common as len()
or even looping, it demonstrates the flexibility Python offers. It’s especially useful when you want to combine counting with a filtering condition, like counting only items that meet certain criteria.
