Hi Heather,
It looks like you are selecting the objects instead of listing them.
Try this instead:
pegA=[]
pegA.append(cmds.ls('disc*'))
print pegA
Keep in mind though, that it will return both the transform node and the
shape nodes.
Good news, is that you can specify the type using:
pegA=[]
pegA.append(cmds.ls('disc*',type='transform'))
print pegA
Hope it helps,
