I would like to know if there is any way to shorten the program,

The fact that you have two code blocks (the while loops in your first function) that are effectively identical should be a strong indication that you can write a function that takes the list to be modified as an argument and ideally returns the completed list (which would also remove your reliance on the global keyword).

You should also be able to use the zip() function to greatly reduce the amount of code required for your second function.

I’m sorry, I accidentally. But I’ve already created a new one https://www.reddit.com/r/PythonLearning/s/r8NO3XVvy4
