linking with excel

[mhmdbarazi]

hello everyone
I linked my python code with an excel sheet, I inserted the library and the compiler could read values from the sheet.
but the problem is when I wanted to put these values in a list this error message came out to me:

Error:
AttributeError: 'list' object attribute 'append' is read-only

and the code is:

import xlrd

file_location = "C:/Users/Hp/Documents/sample_grid.xlsx"

workbook = xlrd.open_workbook(file_location)

sheet = workbook.sheet_by_index(0)
ppv=[]

for r in range(sheet.nrows):
   ppv.append = (sheet.cell_value(r ,3))

print(ppv)

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I tried in different ways but dealing with excel files is really hard and changes from file to file
if anyone can help thanks in advance

ppv.append(sheet.cell_value(r ,3))
