# List Objects

type PyListObject

  This subtype of `PyObject` represents a Python list object.

PyTypeObject PyList_Type
  Del av Stabil ABI.

  This instance of `PyTypeObject` represents the Python list type. This is the same object as `list` in the Python layer.

int PyList_Check(PyObject *p)

  Return true if p is a list object or an instance of a subtype of the list type. This function always succeeds.

int PyList_CheckExact(PyObject *p)

  Return true if p is a list object, but not an instance of a subtype of the list type. This function always succeeds.

PyObject *PyList_New(Py_ssize_t len)
  Returnera värde: Ny referens. Del av Stabil ABI.

  Return a new list of length len on success, or `NULL` on failure.

  Observera

  If len is greater than zero, the returned list object’s items are set to `NULL`. Thus you cannot use abstract API functions such as `PySequence_SetItem()` or expose the object to Python code before setting all items to a real object with `PyList_SetItem()` or `PyList_SET_ITEM()`. The following APIs are safe APIs before the list is fully initialized: `PyList_SetItem()` and `PyList_SET_ITEM()`.

Py_ssize_t PyList_Size(PyObject *list)
  Del av Stabil ABI.

  Return the length of the list object in list; this is equivalent to `len(list)` on a list object.

Py_ssize_t PyList_GET_SIZE(PyObject *list)

  Similar to `PyList_Size()`, but without error checking.

PyObject *PyList_GetItemRef(PyObject *list, Py_ssize_t index)
  Returnera värde: Ny referens. Del av Stabil ABI sedan version 3.13.

  Return the object at position index in the list pointed to by list. The position must be non-negative; indexing from the end of the list is not supported. If index is out of bounds (`<0 or >=len(list)`), return `NULL` and set an `IndexError` exception.

  Added in version 3.13.

PyObject *PyList_GetItem(PyObject *list, Py_ssize_t index)
  Returnera värde: Lånad referens. Del av Stabil ABI.

  Like `PyList_GetItemRef()`, but returns a borrowed reference instead of a strong reference.

PyObject *PyList_GET_ITEM(PyObject *list, Py_ssize_t i)
  Returnera värde: Lånad referens.

  Similar to `PyList_GetItem()`, but without error checking.

int PyList_SetItem(PyObject *list, Py_ssize_t index, PyObject *item)
  Del av Stabil ABI.

  Set the item at index index in list to item. Return `0` on success. If index is out of bounds, return `-1` and set an `IndexError` exception.

  Observera

  This function ”steals” a reference to item and discards a reference to an item already in the list at the affected position.

void PyList_SET_ITEM(PyObject *list, Py_ssize_t i, PyObject *o)

  Macro form of `PyList_SetItem()` without error checking. This is normally only used to fill in new lists where there is no previous content.

  Bounds checking is performed as an assertion if Python is built in debug mode or `with assertions`.

  Observera

  This macro ”steals” a reference to item, and, unlike `PyList_SetItem()`, does not discard a reference to any item that is being replaced; any reference in list at position i will be leaked.

int PyList_Insert(PyObject *list, Py_ssize_t index, PyObject *item)
  Del av Stabil ABI.

  Insert the item item into list list in front of index index. Return `0` if successful; return `-1` and set an exception if unsuccessful. Analogous to `list.insert(index, item)`.

int PyList_Append(PyObject *list, PyObject *item)
  Del av Stabil ABI.

  Append the object item at the end of list list. Return `0` if successful; return `-1` and set an exception if unsuccessful. Analogous to `list.append(item)`.

PyObject *PyList_GetSlice(PyObject *list, Py_ssize_t low, Py_ssize_t high)
  Returnera värde: Ny referens. Del av Stabil ABI.

  Return a list of the objects in list containing the objects between low and high. Return `NULL` and set an exception if unsuccessful. Analogous to `list[low:high]`. Indexing from the end of the list is not supported.

int PyList_SetSlice(PyObject *list, Py_ssize_t low, Py_ssize_t high, PyObject *itemlist)
  Del av Stabil ABI.

  Set the slice of list between low and high to the contents of itemlist. Analogous to `list[low:high] = itemlist`. The itemlist may be `NULL`, indicating the assignment of an empty list (slice deletion). Return `0` on success, `-1` on failure. Indexing from the end of the list is not supported.

int PyList_Extend(PyObject *list, PyObject *iterable)

  Extend list with the contents of iterable. This is the same as `PyList_SetSlice(list, PY_SSIZE_T_MAX, PY_SSIZE_T_MAX, iterable)` and analogous to `list.extend(iterable)` or `list += iterable`.

  Raise an exception and return `-1` if list is not a `list` object. Return 0 on success.

  Added in version 3.13.

int PyList_Clear(PyObject *list)

  Remove all items from list. This is the same as `PyList_SetSlice(list, 0, PY_SSIZE_T_MAX, NULL)` and analogous to `list.clear()` or `del list[:]`.

  Raise an exception and return `-1` if list is not a `list` object. Return 0 on success.

  Added in version 3.13.

int PyList_Sort(PyObject *list)
  Del av Stabil ABI.

  Sort the items of list in place. Return `0` on success, `-1` on failure. This is equivalent to `list.sort()`.

int PyList_Reverse(PyObject *list)
  Del av Stabil ABI.

  Reverse the items of list in place. Return `0` on success, `-1` on failure. This is the equivalent of `list.reverse()`.

PyObject *PyList_AsTuple(PyObject *list)
  Returnera värde: Ny referens. Del av Stabil ABI.

  Return a new tuple object containing the contents of list; equivalent to `tuple(list)`.
