Assertion (A): In Python, list is an immutable collection of data.

Reasoning (R): Mutable means that any change or alteration in data is mentioned in the same place. The updated collection will use the same address for its storage.

1. Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
2. Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
3. A is true but R is false.
4. A is false but R is true.

Assertion (A): The position of each element in the list is considered as its index.

Reasoning (R): Indexing in a list can be positive and negative; index is defined using [] brackets.

1. Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
2. Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
3. A is true but R is false.
4. A is false but R is true.

Assertion (A): An empty list can be created using list() method.

Reasoning (R): The following snippet—

>>>L1 = list()
>>>print(L1)

will give the output as:

[]

This statement holds true.

1. Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
2. Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
3. A is true but R is false.
4. A is false but R is true.

Assertion (A): List is mutable data type.

Reasoning (R): In-place change is not possible in list elements.

1. Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
2. Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
3. A is true but R is false.
4. A is false but R is true.
