How Do I Append Multiple Items To A List? [duplicate]

Question

How can I append numerous items to a list?

I want to avoid doing this:

empty_list = []

empty_list.append('How')
empty_list.append('are')
empty_list.append('you')

empty_list = ['How', 'are', 'you']? Use list.extend? Also note that empty_list is a bad name once it isn't! — jonrsharpe

You can use list.extend:

empty_list = []
empty_list.extend(['How', 'are', 'you'])
