List function

[Adam4u]

How to do the function for input list of stock in python
like [p(1), p(2), . . . , p(n)], for example [ 23,
53, 55, 42, 31, 40 ]

You will have to clarify your question. I don't understand what you are trying to do.

i'm trying to do a functio that consists two input as arrays or (pairs)
and here what i came up with

def main():
    i = [n]
    i, n = input("Enter any number: ")
    print " The first input is", i, " and the index is", n

On other hand, I want to print out the number of any integer entered with its array index between bracket... Thanks in advance

Does this help any?

>>> numbers = [0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9]
>>> for i, num in enumerate(numbers):
...     print "The number is %s and the index is %s" % (num, i)
...     
The number is 0 and the index is 0
The number is 1 and the index is 1
The number is 2 and the index is 2
The number is 3 and the index is 3
The number is 4 and the index is 4
The number is 5 and the index is 5
The number is 6 and the index is 6
The number is 7 and the index is 7
The number is 8 and the index is 8
The number is 9 and the index is 9

Hi Adam4u

I'm afraid that code in your second post makes no sense. As I see it there are two things you could be trying to do.

option 1: user enters a number, and the computer assigns it an index number automatically

option 2: user enters a number and an index and the computer assigns that number to that index.

Both are possible, of course. Which do you want? Or is there something else that you want?

Here's an ugly implementation of option 1:

p=[]  #sets up p as a list
while True:  #infinite loop for data input
    i=input("Enter any number (0 to quit): ")
    if i==0: break   #if user enters nothing break out of infinite loop
    p.append(i)  #append i as the next item in the list
 
#Once we've broken out of the loop, print of the values you've entered:
print p
#or if you want to be a bit fancy
for n,i in enumerate(p):
    print "index ", n, "value ", i, " which is equal to ", p[n]
