Greetings,
i am having some problems here. I have added the lists.py. Exercise asks for the third task to add range 3-20 to the 1, 2, 3 which are already present in the list. I am trying to add the numbers by the following command the_list.extend(range(4,21)), but for some odd reason i get error and the task does not complete. I cant find what i could be doing wrong here. Would appreciate if someone could help me.
Best Regards,
the_list = ["a", 2, 3, 1, False, [1, 2, 3]]
# Your code goes below here
list = the_list
the_list.pop(3)
the_list.insert(0, 1)
the_list.remove("a")
the_list.remove(False)
the_list.remove([1, 2, 3])
the_list.extend(range(4, 21))

Apparently, creating the "list" variable confuses the challenge checker.
