What is the point of this color list, if you'll print out whatever color they enter? From your description so far, it sounds unnecessary. Just take the string they have, assume that it is a valid color, and call your function that prints it |

What do you want to happen if they enter a color that is not in your list? |

List comprension loops look like this: >>> [print('Yay #{0}'.format(i)) for i in range(5)] Yay #0 Yay #1 Yay #2 Yay #3 Yay #4 (This example doesn't seem to work in Python2 by the way, I get a syntax error. So use Python3). |
| Programming › Re: I Need Help With This Python Exercise by ektbear: 10:33pm On Jul 20, 2012 |
As you can see, calling the range() function returns a list. For example, my call range(5) returns the list: [0,1,2,3,4] So, to perform a for loop in Python, you can do: for x in range(5): do_some_stuff() In my case, do_some_stuff() is essentially just printing to the screen. Makes sense? I do agree with you though, Python list comprehensions seem way cooler to me. I prefer that style of programming to the for loop style in the above image. |

You can use the range() function combined with a for loop (or list comprehension) to reduce the block of print(c) calls down to one line. Probably also wise to wrap the above in a function. And have the color passed as a parameter to the function. You can google how to do these things in python (range(), for loop, list comprehension, functions). |

Heh. Logging that many miles of travel will tire anyone. But you are correct. She is certainly less effeminate, weak, and pathetic than certain Nairalanders. |
