please, only the last item of the list is printing. Also, how could I add "count" variable to the input () function to add a digit to each input line? For example, Name #1: Name #2:, Name #3? Thanks. I spent quite a bit of time on this today.
Have you used lists yet? here is an example of appending items to a list and then loop through the items of the list.
names = []
for number in range(1, 4):
names.append(f"name: {number}")
for name in names:
print(name)Output:
name: 1
name: 2
name: 3
See if you can incorporate a list into your code.
Better to get the names from a text file or list than enter them 1 by 1
path = '/home/pedro/Desktop/'
myfile = '100names.txt' # each name on a new line
names_data = open(path + myfile, 'r')
data = names_data.readlines # data is now a list of the names
names_data.close()
You can see all the names in data like Yoriz said:
for d in data:
print(d)If you want a to get 2 values on input:
num, name = input('Enter 1 number and 1 name, separated by 1 space ... ').split()Note: num is a string, if you want a number: mynumber = int(num)
Have fun!
Another way
names = []
counter = 1
while True:
name = input('Enter Name: ')
if name == 'q':
break
names.append(f'{counter}. {name}')
counter += 1
for name in names:
print(name)Output:
Enter Name: john
1. john
Enter Name: jane
1. john
2. jane
Enter Name: sue
1. john
2. jane
3. sue
Enter Name: bob
1. john
2. jane
3. sue
4. bob

what do you think, thanks!
