Yes, you can also do:
inventory += chest
Both += and extend() are in-place methods and both are suitable solutions for this. It’s personal preference.

Man as a C programmer this makes me rethink life choices

[blood_lad]

Don't forget to delete items from the chest, otherwise someone is getting infinite resources...

[joeldoonan-ketteringham]

Everyones talking about other ways to do the same thing, but no ones talking about the fact that there are still items in the chest

Thank you, @b001, so much for these shorts. They really drive home concepts and the community genuinely seems willing to add their various expertise to the discussions.

Never used extend before, however I do use:
inventory = intentory + chest
Works too

I think
inventory += chest
also work

Also known as concat in JS and Ruby: [1, 2, 3].concat([4, 5, 6])

I never knew about this thank you so much for this knowledge

[mohammedgt]

Wow. Something I have been using for a while is the right thing? I am proud. 😂

This is awesome.
Currently learning python so liking it back to games makes it infinitely easier to learn.
Thanks much will keep this in mind from now

Thanks! I recently had this problem and my solution was:-

Inventory = Inventory + Chest

[laxlyfters]

Great video and it shows both ways. Some interviewers will ask you to do the same feature but without using built in methods and some interviewers may have ou write code in a text editor not in a IDE. Thank you awesome content.

You also can merge them
Inventory = [*Inventory, *chest]

[techpath]

very helpful, thanks. Great format for learning

[Kadori]

This is good for a "Pickup All" but the first option is better for individual items also drop the item from the array when it's picked up

[Wallee]

I love extend, very useful as I like dealing with and sorting data in my code :D

[BlaqwD]

I genuinely thought everyone used this

[seano]

Can't you also use the built in addition operator to just add the two lists together?

[CC-.]

In JS is += or the 3 dots mathod(...) simple
