Why won’t my if statement work

Question

https://code.sololearn.com/c666mkc3yhSd/?ref=app
The if statement won’t work (the code is meant to simulate bunny populations and the if statement is to kill bunny’s that are over 9 generations old)

Answer 1

you need to indent every line which should be included in the if statement - proper indention is essential in python! it is basically replacing the curly braces like in java or c

Answer 2

First, check your indentions, indention in defining functions and if statements are required.

Second, what is your desired output? Can you give some sample inputs and outputs? I can't quite what you're trying to program. Thanks, that will help.

Answer 3

《 Nicko12 》 thank you but that is not the error at hand the error is with the indentation what you pointed out would cause a second though so thank you but i could have Figured that oot on my own

Answer 4

4 spaces or 1 tab

Answer 5

Ok I'll figure out. Wait a sec.

Answer 6

its ok i got it working i dont need you to solve my problem with new code i need you to show me why my codes wrong

Answer 7

Ben Carvalho Well.. the reason why I'm asking for the purpose of the program is for the syntaxes and to know what you want to do. Anyway I'll just point out what causes errors.

x-=population.[0]
remove(population.[0])

Should be

population.remove(population[0])

remove is a method of list so it must be followed by the list and a dot.

Answer 8

Oh ok, anyway.

"def" requires indention too

# like this
def function():
return something

Answer 9

《 Nicko12 》 thank you

Answer 10

Martin Ed how do i know if its indented

Answer 11

《 Nicko12 》 it says in the post the if statment is to kill bunnys 9 genarations old so if list > 9 remove first item in list

Answer 12

《 Nicko12 》 no that is so far from what its meant to do did you even look at my code?

Answer 13

Martin Ed where do i put the 4 spaces
