Please help me

Hi,

I want the program to ask how many players that is in the game, and then depending on what number you wrote it's going to ask for every players name.

I think there's something wrong in the for loop. How do I make it work??


def numberOfPlayers():
a = raw_input("How many players are you? ")

number = numberOfPlayers()



def players():

player = raw_input("Whats your name? ")

return player

for a in range (0, len(number)):
players()

  3.     a = raw_input("How many players are you? ")
  4.     return int(a)
  5.  
  6.  
  7. player_list = []
  8. for a in range (number):
  9.     player_list.append(players())

  2. player_list = []
  3. def players(n):
  4.     for a in range (n):
  5.         player_list.append(raw_input("Whats your name? "))
  6.  
  7.  
  8. players(number)
  9.  
  10.  
Now you have a list and can refer to each name as
player_list[n]
where n is zero to number - 1
