Why did marks become None?
Short answer. append() returns None, and that None was stored in marks.
Which list method returns the removed item?
pop().
Remember
| append, sort, reverse: None |
| pop: returns the item |
| sorted, len, count: new value |
Storing append gave None. Why? Append changes the list and returns None. Storing that None lost your list. Call append alone. Append, sort and reverse return None. Pop returns the item. Sorted, len and count return values.
