Hello! I'm in the works of a flask app which I already had issues with and some nice ppl helped me, and am having other issues...

I have this if statement:

if not ((lines[4] == lines[6] == dataseg[0]) & (lines[5] == dataseg[1])):

and I get this error:

Error:
if not ((lines[5] == lines[7] == dataseg[0]) & (lines[6] == dataseg[1])):
IndexError: tuple index out of range

The full error being:

Error:

Can u guys help me? (sry my code is a mess LMAO)

My code: https://pastebin.com/ukMv4nTy

Without the code, we can't help much. But the error suggests that one of those variables is a tuple and the index is too large.

Before the if you could print the types of them:

print(f"dataseg is of type {type(dataseg)} and has {len(dataseg)} elements.")
print(f"lines is of type {type(lines)} and has {len(lines)} elements.")

That won't tell you why you have a tuple, but it will tell you which one it is and its length.

I solved it, thanks !

Did you really mean to do a bitwise and?
