Question

Error in the 3rd line of code: TypeError: 'list' object cannot be interpreted as an integer

cityNames = []
cityNames = ['Providence', 'Denver', 'Miami', 'Chicago', 'Seattle']
  
for city in range(cityNames):

print(str(cityNames[city]))

Answer 1

Corrected code(this code is in python):

cityNames=[]

cityNames=['Providence','Denver','Miami','Chicago','Seattle']

#the error occured because range function takes a value to which

#the loop should iterate, here instead of that integer value, you have

#given the entire list itself

#for iterating through the entire list, instead of giving the list

#we should provide the length of the list, so that every element in

#the list could be accessed. Here len function is used to obtain

#length of the list cityNames and hence all elements in that list can be accessed.

for city in range(len(cityNames)):

    print(str(cityNames[city]))

Screenshot:

cityNames=[] 2 cityNames=['Providence', 'Denver', 'Miami', 'Chicago', 'Seattle'] 3 #the error occured because range function takes a value to which 4 #the loop should iterate, here instead of that integer value, you have 5 #given the entire list itself 6 #for iterating through the entire list, instead of giving the list 7 #we should provide the length of the list, so that every element in 8 #the list could be accessed. Here len function is used to obtain 9 #length of the list cityNames and hence all elements in that list can be accessed. 10 v for city in range (len(cityNames)): 11 print(str(cityNames [city]))

Output:

Your Output (stdout) 1 Providence 2 Denver Miami 3 4 Chicago 5 Seattle
