Not adding and assigning?

[nilamo]

else:
            number8 += 1

on line 118-119, I add 1 to number 8. On line 36, I state that number 8 will define the character in the output of char_list8 as such:

char_list8 = chars[number8][0]

Is this unclear to you? Sorry, i dont mean to be rude but it seems to me that that would work. I dont see what could go wrong. Thanks again for everything,

char_list8 has it's value set to whatever chars[number8][0] is, but it's value doesn't get updated if number8 happens to change. They're two unrelated things. If you want char_list8 to change, you have to also change char_list8. Programming would be incredibly difficult if all your variables changed their values whenever anything happened to unrelated other parts of your code.
