taking input doesnt print as list - bntayfur - Jun-04-2020

I am trying to get 10 scores from the user and print them out as a list. instead output is like this

Output:
please enter your discussions scores: 3
[3]

please enter your discussions scores: 2
[2]

please enter your discussions scores: 1
[1]

please enter your discussions scores: 3
[3]

please enter your discussions scores: 5
[5]

please enter your discussions scores: 4
[4]

please enter your discussions scores: 3
[3]

please enter your discussions scores: 2
[2]

please enter your discussions scores: 1
[1]

please enter your discussions scores: 1
[1]
i=1
while i <=10:
    try: 
        my_list = []  
        my_list.append(int(input('please enter your discussions scores: '))) 
        i += 1
        print(my_list)
    
    except: 
        print('you made an error,please try again')
Still doesnt work when i print it outside like this

i=1
while i <=10:
    try: 
        my_list = []  
        my_list.append(int(input('please enter your discussions scores: '))) 
        i += 1
    
    except: 
        print('you made an error,please try again')
print(my_list)

Define my_list before the loop.
