List in python, heeeeelp meeeee sensie

Question

myList = ["Nani", "onichan", "kodasai"]

How do i get rid of these errors?
What i am going to do here is to find the exact index number of my list even i put lower cases string. Example,

Sample = myList.index("nani" )
This turns into error result since nani is not in the list unless, the "n" will be capitalized. I already use .lower() function while converting the list of myList into lower cases but i put it in another variable and it works, but is there another way to make this simple and not complicated?

Answer 1

You should lowercase the way i updated in the code.
mylist[i]=mylist[i].lower()
Explanation: Because only this will lowercase the character and will updated the value lowercased in the list concurrently

Answer 2

May be....it should work.

Sample = myList.index("nani".lower())

Answer 3

Abhay here
*input a teammate names "but capitalized"
*input checker in "lower cases"
Sample:

Name: KENT, BEN, YEN
checker: kent
Output// nope

list = []

print("Enter teammates")
for i in range(3):
list += [input("Enter name: ")]

while True:
check = input("\nCheck name: ")

if check in list:
print("Present")
else:
print("Nope")

Answer 4

Nihar Buliya yup, its mine.

Answer 5

Ok if that's the exact code.
It is showing error if i am checking for "nani" in the list.
The error message is "nani is not in the list"
so the question here is what are you using to lowercase the list elements?

Answer 6

Nihar Buliya so, how do i get rid of that thing?

Answer 7

Also you can try use a method to change the string itself
my_list = ['Nani', 'Onichan', 'Kodasai']
Sample = my_list.index('nani'.capitalize())

capitalize () it's the method to make only the first letter to Capital Capital letter

Answer 8

Naveen Rathore nope, u r just trying to lower the cases of your sample variable. also in that case, your sample variable is nothing to do with the list.
U r doing this >> ...("NANI".lower()) >> output: nani >> sample.

Answer 9

I didn't understand what exactly you are looking for but code by Naveen Rathore works fine

Answer 10

Above is another example, it always turns to nope if i put lower cases in checker name

Answer 11

Kakai so can't you make names lowercase when user adds an input , like

list += [input("Enter name: ").lower()]

Or list should only have the same case of letters as input ?

Answer 12

It is showing the same error for me even if i am putting the mylisy.index() into variable..Can you check if that was your code?

Answer 13

Run a loop for list and convert all characters to lowercase and then you can get the index .
