Python

Question

i=0
row1=['0,0,0']

print(row1)
z = input("Y/N").upper()
if i<5:
if z =="Y":
row1[i]=1
print(row1)
i+=1

I was expecting the output to be [1,0,0]
Why the output for the if statement is only [1], where did the other 2 two "0" went?
Thanks in advance

Answer 1

You're welcome. Also, I think a while loop might be what you're looking for:

i = 0
row1 = [0,0,0]

print(row1)

while i < len(row1): # make sure you don't get an IndexError
if input("Y/N").upper() == 'Y':
row1[i] = 1
print(row1)
i += 1

Answer 2

row1=['0,0,0'] defines a list with one element: the string '0,0,0'.

If you want a list with thee zeros, remove the qutation marks.

Answer 3

Oh,that's why! Thanks!!
