Adding a single value in list is quite generic and easy. But to add that value more than one time, generally, a loop is used to execute this task. Having shorter tricks to perform this can be handy. Let’s discuss certain ways in which this can be done.

To add a similar value multiple times to a list in Python, we can use the append() method in a loop. Here's an example program that demonstrates this: 

# Define the value to be added
value = 10

# Define the number of times the value should be added
num_times = 5

# Define an empty list to store the values
my_list = []

# Loop through the range of num_times and append the value to the list each time
for i in range(num_times):
    my_list.append(value)

# Print the final list
print(my_list)

In this program, we first define the value to be added (value) and the number of times it should be added (num_times). We then define an empty list (my_list) to store the values.

Next, we use a for loop to iterate through the range of num_times and append the value to the list using the append() method.

Finally, we print the my_list to verify that the values have been added correctly.

If you run this program, you should see the following output: 

[10, 10, 10, 10, 10]

This indicates that the value 10 has been added to the list 5 times.
