I'm brand new to coding and python. Could someone tell me what is wrong with my code?
def getlist():
lst=[]
answer1 = raw_input ("Would you like to add a number to create your mean value? y/n")
if (answer1 == "y"):
x = input ("Your number:")
lst = lst + [x]
return lst
def mean(l):
return float(sum(l))/len(l)
a=mean(getList())
print aJump to PostWhat is your python version?
When you run it do you get any errors?
Jump to PostI use python 3.0 and your modifying code works fine:
def getList(): lst=[] answer1 = input ("Would you like to add a number to create your mean value? y/n") if (answer1 == "y"): while True: x = input ("Your number:") if not x: break lst = lst …

print (a)I'm using python 2.6
my code says I haven't defined getlist
you defined getlist() with lowercase letter 'l' and below used it with uppercase letter 'L'. Python is case-sensitive language. :)
I would do like this for your example, it shows the 'mean' when you just press enter with no input.
def getlist():
lst = []
x = None
while x != '':
x = raw_input('Your number:')
if x:
lst.append(int(x))
return lst
def mean(l):
return float(sum(l))/len(l)
a = mean(getlist())
print aCheers and Happy coding
You have defined getlist. You have not defined getList.
