Is it possible to simplify this somehow?

Question

fruits = ["apple", "cherry", "banana", "kiwi", "lemon", "pear", "peach", "avocado"]
num = int(input())

if num < 0 or num > 7:
print ("Wrong number")
if num == 0:
print ("apple")
if num == 1:
print ("cherry")
if num == 2:
print ("banana")
if num == 3:
print ("kiwi")
if num == 4:
print ("lemon")
if num == 5:
print ("pear")
if num == 6:
print ("peach")
if num == 7:
print ("avocado")

Answer 1

You didn't make use of the list at all. Take another look at indexing.

Answer 2

if num < 0 or num > 7:
print("Wrong number")
else:
print(fruits[num])

Answer 3

I feel a presence, a lost soul, a disembodied spirit. Speak to me spirit, who are you? I hear a voice, faint as though it is coming from a deep well. The spirit's name is "Rik", "Rik Wittkopp". Speak to me Rik -- what message do you have for us? I hear the voice, distant and hoarse. It says:
"
print(fruits[num] if 0 <= num < len(fruits) else "Wrong number")
"

(Rik is having technical difficulties. For some reason only people following him can see his posts and only in their feed.)

Answer 4

Simon Sauter Though your solution is great - quite pythonic, indeed - and the sarcasm is a Good Thing in Python, I just recommend not giving finished code. Give conceptual hints instead. This allows posters to think it through and learn for real.

Answer 5

Simon Sauter Thank you for the uplifted mood

I love the responses to your comment, now you know how a psychic feels when no-one believes him.

Thanks for passing on my post

There are more things on sololearn, Rik, than are dreamt of in their philosophy.
