Create Task - segment must show how data is stored in the list

3b states:
3 b. Capture and paste two program code segments you developed during the administration of this task that contain a list (or other collection type) being used to manage complexity in your program. Approx. 200 words (for all subparts of 3b combined, exclusive of program code) i. The first program code segment must show how data have been stored in the list

A student in a practice Create, had the following single line of Python code in response to “The first program code segment must show how data have been stored in the list”

       *MyList =  []*

My question is :

Is this single line of code initializing an empty list sufficient to partially satisfy the Row 2 score, or will it cause row 2 score to be zero?

Is it necessary to capture code that loads one or more items in the list?

2

I would say yes. Students must show how the list is populated.

You might try posting this question to the AP Computer Science Principles Teacher Community. Hopefully you would get an answer from someone who works for the College Board. I honestly don’t know if that would sufficient.
