In Julia is there similar data structure like "list" in python?

[Jiakui Wang]

I have to use something similar to "list" in python, but I can't find what to use in Julia.

Set() in Julia seems to be similar to "list" in python, but it seems to support push! and pop! only.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

What Python obtusely calls a list is actually an array. You can use Julia 1D arrays the way you would a Python "list".

Thanks! Is there something similar to "enumerate()" in julia? It is very convenient!!!

So

list = {1,2,4,"this", "that", 5.12}

You can find a cheat sheet I'm building for Julia here.

Then:

    push!(list,"the other")
    pop!(list)

Does not enumerate work?

It works, thanks! I didn't find it on the Julia manual.

when that's done, please put it on the main site.  very useful.  maybe it could be a little prettier, though ;o)

How do you add something to the main site. I am also most of the way through a less dense one for Gadfly plus a tutorial for Gadfly to complement Daniel's manual.

I modelled the sheet on a Python 2.5 one; so any thoughts on prettification or completeness would be welcome. I'll post a link to the latest one and the Gadfly one in the next 24 hours.
