I've written a code to let user continuously input for new members' name for Beatles and print the a new list of members' name once user has done with inputting, but i keep getting repeated names if i entered more than one name. Could somebody help me out here?
Attached the code below. Many thanks!
# step 1
beatles = ['John Lennon', 'Paul_McCartney', 'Geogre Harrison']
new_list=[]
new_member = ''
while True:
new_member = input ('Please enter new memebers to the group, enter NA to exit entering: ')
if new_member == 'NA':
break
else:
new_list.append (new_member)
for i in new_list:
beatles.append(i)
print("Step 3:", beatles)
CodePudding user response:
two solution
1:
for i in new_list:
if i not in beatles:
beatles.append(i)
or you don't need new_list at all
2: after else
beatles.append(new_member)
CodePudding user response:
You should set new_member empty and define new_list each time the code runs you can make some changes as i done in you code and it will run while giving you the desired output.
beatles = ['John Lennon', 'Paul_McCartney', 'Geogre Harrison']
while True:
new_list=[]
new_member = ''
new_member = input ('Please enter new memebers to the group, enter NA to exit entering: ')
if new_member == 'NA':
break
else:
new_list.append (new_member)
for i in new_list:
beatles.append(i)
print("Step 3:", beatles)
