What does it mean when a list index is out of range in python?

If you try to access a non-existent item in a list, that's the error that's thrown. Ex: If you have a list with 5 items, it has indexes 0 (the 1st item) through 4 (the 5th item). If you use index 5 (what would be the 6th item), you're going out of bounds of the list.

that you have specified an element that is not exist in your list, or probably you're wrong with index(first element is 0)
