small beginner problem - FelixReiter - Nov-17-2020
Hey Everyone,
I just started with python so i have a little beginner problem here.
I found out that my funcion wont append the dictionary to the list. but i dont understand why.
I guess for everyone who knows python a bit better than me, the problem is simple and obvious.
So if anyone could help me, i would be really happy.
alben = []
def make_album (artist_name, album_title):
"""returns album data"""
album = {'artist name: ': artist_name.title() , 'album title: ': album_title.title()}
return album
alben.append(album)
a_album = make_album ( 'tool','salival')
b_album = make_album ('selektivton','in the woods')
c_album = make_album ('john frusciante','the empyrean')
for i in alben:

Line 7 is never executed, because returning from a function immediately returns to the caller.

Tanks a lot for this quick response. ok i understand. and yes, switching the lines 6 and 7 worked.
