for (i=0;i<5;i++) scanf("%d",&array[i]); here we can give input of 5 numbers with a space in command prompt.
In Python we would normally read the entire string using raw_input() then split the string into its constituent parts like: inStr = raw_input('Type 5 numbers:') array = [int(d) for d in inStr.split()]
list = [ [ ], [ ] ] for i in range (0,2): for j in range (0, 2): list[i].append ( int (raw_input()) ) here, I am expecting a list like [ [1,2] , [3,4] ] but when I give 1,2,3,4 with space in command prompt at once, it shows error.
That's because int() cannot convert '1 2 3 4' into an integer. int() is like atoi() in C.
How do i overcome this problem?
first get a list of numbers then put them into the structure you want: inStr = raw_input('Type 4 numbers:') array = [int(d) for d in inStr.split()] list = [ [array[:2], [array[2:4] ] HTH -- Alan G Author of the Learn to Program web site http://www.alan-g.me.uk/ _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
