TypeError: list indices must be integers or slices, not str
#2
So I am having this problem with my code. I can't figure out why it is working. I am very new to python and would appreciate some help.
The code is:

import pandas as pd
import quandl


df = quandl.get("WIKI/GOOGL", authtoken="X5A1-ewy2UCfkFVfGKuW")
df = [["Adj. Open","Adj. High","Adj. Low","Adj. Close","Adj. Volume",]]
df["HL_PCT"] = (df["Adj. High"] - df["Adj. Close"]) / df["Adj. Close"] * 100.0
df["PCT_change"] = (df["Adj. Close"] - df["Adj. Open"]) / df["Adj. Open"] * 100.0

df = df [["Adj. Close","HL_PCT","PCT_change","Adj. Volume"]]

print(df.head())
And the error I am getting is:
Error:
RESTART: C:\Users\elias\Desktop\PythonStuff\PythonProjects\MachineLearning.py Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Users\elias\Desktop\PythonStuff\PythonProjects\MachineLearning.py", line 7, in <module> df["HL_PCT"] = (df["Adj. High"] - df["Adj. Close"]) / df["Adj. Close"] * 100.0 TypeError: list indices must be integers or slices, not str
Thx :)
