How to multiply a certain integer in list?

[hawkstudent]

If the list contains exactly three elements to n, it will return a Boolean True. If not, it will return a Boolean false. The list also has to have a range of 1-6 and length of 1-6 characters. I have this part figured out, but I don't know how to count the number of times an integer appears in the list. I have this but it's not right at all, anything would help!

def threeOfAKind(aList,n):
                   if 1<=len(aList)<=6 and set(aList)<=set(range(1,6)):
                         for i in range(1,6):
                               if n.count(aList)>=3:
                                    return aList

This returns the error 'int" object has no attribute 'count".

Not sure I understand the question or the problem you are having, but a tutorial on using count should get you a little farther on the way http://www.tutorialspoint.com/python/list_count.htm Note also that the for() does the same exact thing 5 times, so add some print statements so you can tell what is happening.
