python append和extend区别

（一）a.append(b) 把b看做一个整体，整个打包放入a
append 翻译：追加

a=[1,2]
b=[3,4]
a.append(b)

# out
[1,2,[3,4]]

a.extend(b) 看做a b两个序列合并
extend 翻译：扩展；延伸

a=[1,2]
b=[3,4]
a.append(b)

# out
[1,2,3,4]

（二）list.append(object) 向列表中添加一个对象object

music_media = ['compact disc', '8-track tape', 'long playing record']
new_media = ['DVD Audio disc', 'Super Audio CD']
music_media.append(new_media)
print(music_media)
>>>['compact disc', '8-track tape', 'long playing record', ['DVD Audio disc', 'Super Audio CD']]

list.extend(sequence) 把一个序列seq的内容添加到列表中

music_media = ['compact disc', '8-track tape', 'long playing record']
new_media = ['DVD Audio disc', 'Super Audio CD']
music_media.extend(new_media)
print(music_media)
>>>['compact disc', '8-track tape', 'long playing record', 'DVD Audio disc', 'Super Audio CD']
