Thanks for the reply.
So to append a word is it suppose to look kind of like:
word=raw_input("Name #1: ")
word.append(words)
I keep getting error message:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/Users/JT/Desktop/pythonfinal", line 23, in <module>
CollectNames()
File "/Users/JT/Desktop/pythonfinal", line 7, in CollectNames
word.append(words)
AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'append'
