Anyone find the error in merge sort algorithm program.syntax error can't assigh to function call line11

Question

def mergesort(list):
if lengthlist >1:
m=len(list)//2
leftlist=list[:m]
rightlist=list[m:]
mergesort(leftlist)
mergesort(rightlist)
i=j=k=0
while i<len(leftlist) and j<len(rightlist) :
if leftlist(i) < rightlist(j):
list(k)=leftlist(i)
i=i+1
k=k+1
else :
list(k)=rightlist(j)
j=j+1
k=k+1
while i>len(leftlist):
list(k)=leftlist(i)
i=i+1
k=k+1
while j>len(rightlist):
list(k)=rightlist(j)
j=j+1
k=k+1
list=[5,4,3,2,1]
mergesort(list)
print(list)

Answer 1

I'm not sure exactly but do you mean to use list[k] instead of list(k)? If so, there are multiple times that you used the wrong type of bracket.
