What is the mistake in this code ? Why I am not geting the desired output?

Question

import random
def ketonattack():
list_g = ["Keton used leaf slash","Keton hit you with a kick ","keton used head butt","keton used sling shot"]
l = random.choice(list_g)
if l == list_g[0]:
print(list_g[0]+" Your monsto got damage of 30%\n [///////]")
elif l == list_g[1]:
print(list_g[1]+ "Your monsto got Critical damage of 70%\n [///]")
elif l == list_g[2]:
print(list_g[2]+" Your monsto got damage of 10%\n [////////]")
elif l == list_g[3]:
print(list_g[3]+" Your monsto dodge the attack\n [//////////]")
else:
print("error")

ketonattack()

Output:-
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "source_file.py", line 4, in <module>
l = random.choice(list_g)
NameError: name 'list_g' is not defined
Process finished with exit code 1.

Answer 1

local scope variables (i.e. variables inside functions) are not accessible to outside of the function, once the function is called and executed, the variables inside it are destroyed.

So you may want to remove that function and make your list_g a normal and global variable.

OR

I think those nested if-elif-else statement are supposed to be indented inside your function for this to work.

Answer 2

Your code isn't properly indented, check again to see what is wrong.
