IndexError: list index out of range
The “IndexError” occurs when you try to access an index of a sequence (such as a list or a string) that is outside the valid range of indices. This error typically indicates that you are trying to access an element at an index that doesn’t exist in the sequence.
Let’s consider the following code snippet:
print(numbers[3])
In this example, the list numbers
contains three elements, indexed as 0, 1, and 2. However, when you try to access numbers[3]
, which is outside the valid range, the “IndexError” occurs.
