Why is my program showing index error while trying to take input a list without eval function? PYTHON

Question

n = int(input("Enter no. of terms"))

for a in range(0,n):
l[a] = int(input("Enter value"))

print(l)

Answer 1

Because list has 0 value so you can't assign value to a list like that.

So do this:

for a in range(0, n):
l.append(int(input()))

If you want to assign value like that then you have to define list with 0 value like this:

n = int(input())

l = [0, 0]

for a in range(0, n):
l[a] = int(input())

print (l)

If you enter 2 1 2 then list will be [1, 2]

Answer 2

Hi Shan!
I assume that l is an empty list. You just have to use append() method to add each element one by one to update list l.
So, it needs to be like this

n = int(input("Enter no. of terms"))
l = []
for a in range(n):
l.append(int(input("Enter value")))
print(l)

Thank you both of you
