Hi,

I wrote a simple program, as follows-
def finddivisor(n1, n2):
     divisor = ()

What's wrong with divisor = [] # a list

     for i in range(1, min(n1+n2)+1):
         if n1%i == 0 and n2%i==0:
     divisor = divisor + (i, )

Then divisor.append(i)

     return divisor

n1 = eval(input('Enter first number: '))
n2 = eval(input('Enter second number: '))

Please don't use the code above.

n1 = int(input('Enter first number: '))



divisors= finddivisor(n1,n2)
print (divisors)

However, when I run it, the message

Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "C:/Python33/Trials/tuple trial.py", line 21, in <module>
     divisors= finddivisor(n1,n2)
   File "C:/Python33/Trials/tuple trial.py", line 12, in finddivisor
     for i in range(1, min(n1+n2)+1):
TypeError: 'int' object is not iterable

shows up. Could you please tell me where I went wrong? Does it mean that
if i in an integer, it will not be iterated? But isn't the code for i in
range(1, n) a very frequently used line?

It is indeed, but not when you've mistyped it :) Take a close look at your call to min()


Thank you for your help!


Not at all.
