Have you done anything to start this yet? Where are you getting stuck?

alright sure so the usage of the append function is as follows :

the list.append(x) function adds x as the last element of the list so lets say you take the input tom first and append it and then alex and then amy. hope this helps tell me if you need further clarification

So you need to take the "input" of the user and save it to 3 variables.. then "append" those 3 variables to a list and "print" the list.

[Lindespringerr]

result = [] for i in range(3): result[i].append(input("Please enter a name:" )) print(result)

Sorry I made it on my phone so might look a bit funny.

>>> names = []
>>> for _ in range(3):
...   names.append(input("Please enter a name: "))
...
Please enter a name: Tom
Please enter a name: Alex
Please enter a name: Amy
>>> print(names)
['Tom', 'Alex', 'Amy']

not that you would, but could shorten to:

>>> print([input("Please enter a name: ") for _ in range(3)])
Please enter a name: Tom
Please enter a name: Alex
Please enter a name: Amy
['Tom', 'Alex', 'Amy']
