Problem 2

A) Using a combination of list subsetting and variable assignment, create a new variable named sum_cases that contains the sum of Prince William's cases and Loudoun's cases. Refer to the cases list below. Print the new variable sum_cases.

In [ ]:

cases = ['Fairfax', 66703, 

 'Prince William', 39398, 

 'Virginia Beach', 30652, 

 'Loudoun', 23126, 

 'Arlington', 13182]

B) Use slicing to create a list, top_3, that contains the first 4 elements of cases. Do a similar thing to create a new variable, last_2, that contains the last 4 elements of cases. Print both top_3 and last_2 using print().

In [ ]:

cases = ['Fairfax', 66703, 

 'Prince William', 39398, 

 'Virginia Beach', 30652, 

 'Loudoun', 23126, 

 'Arlington', 13182]

C) Update cases for Virginia Beach and add an additional 348 cases. Print cases
