checker element = {'H': 1, 'N': 6, 'F': 7, 'Cl': 7}
i = input("Enter: ")
dots = '*'
totalDots = (dots * i)Enter: H
Traceback (most recent call last):

NameError: name 'H' is not defined
How come?
Thanks

i = raw_input('Enter: ')
dots = '*'
totalDots = element[i]*dots
masterofpuppets 19 hi,
as mentioned in the above post you need to use the raw_input function because input reads in an integer/float value :)
Edited by masterofpuppets: n/a
jimothy masterofpuppets is right, you have to use input for numbers and raw_input for text strings. If this still doesnt work then try defining the class before putting it in the element list.
