Input user into a list
<p>I am trying to receive user input and then put it into a list. I have a working version, however, I feel as though it is redundant(the first block seems redundant, though if I take it away, it doesn't work). Any way this can be improved?
Thanks</p>

<pre><code>def pastChoice():
     choice = raw_input("&gt; ")
     prevMove = []
     prevMove.append(choice)

for i in prevMove:
     choice = raw_input("&gt; ")
     prevMove.append(choice)
     print prevMove
</code></pre>

<p>pastChoice()</p>

<p>I am making a game and I want to show the user what choices they have already made.</p>

<p>Ex. Type 'history' if you would like to see previous choices</p>

<p>['a','a','c','b']</p>
