Python Basics: Lists vs Arrays Explained

Lists and arrays in Python can both store indexed data of any type, but arrays allow arithmetic operations while lists will throw errors. Arrays must be declared while lists do not. Arrays are preferable over lists when storing large amounts of data or performing arithmetic on the data due to their more compact and efficient storage of information.

What is array?

Lists and arrays are used in Python to store data(any data type- strings,
integers etc), both can be indexed and iterated also. Difference between lists
and arrays are the functions that you can perform on them like for example
when you want to divide an array by 4, the result will be printed on request but
in case of a list, python will throw an error message. Here's how it works:

Arrays need to be declared whereas lists do not need declaration because they are a part of Python's syntax.
This is the reason lists are more often used than arrays. But in case you want to perform some arithmetic
function to your list, one should go with arrays instead.
If you want to store a large amount of data, then you should consider arrays because they can store data very
compactly and efficiently.
