outerlist.append(innerlist)
outerlist.append([4,5,6])

What does 'direction of the read mean'?

This is a list for programmers learning python.
Do not assume any specialized domain knowledge.
If you can explain the problem in terms of
plain English and basic math then we can probably help.
If you use terms that are either ambiguous or too
specialized we will be lost and unable to assist.
