Oops, my reply got lost somehow. Here it is:
Everyone's answer to date has been too complicated. What is going on is
that list.append() changes the list in place. It returns nothing. If
you want to append an item and then assign the result to a new list, you
have to do just that:

Frankly, I doubt it. While you can argue "
Chris,
There is much to say about consistent behavior as compared to flexibility
and convenience.
I have seen other languages provide functions for example, where the result
can vary and often cause confusion. R had a function that would sometimes
notice the result could be simplified and return
