Swap items in a list

[dustbunny000]

Hi,

I want to change an item from one value to another. How would I do this?

[griswolf]

for example, because your title was 'swap' items in a list:

a_list = [1,2,4,3]
print(a_list)
tmp = a_list[2]
a_list[2] = a_list[3]
a_list[3] = tmp
print(a_list)

Of course for this particular example you could also have just said a_list.sort() to get the same effect as lines 3,4,5
