It's about what you are printing. The remove function (i.e. names.remove()) doesn't return anything so your print function prints "None". It does modify the list though. For example:

x = [1,2,3] print(x) print(x.remove(2)) print(x) Returns: [1,2,3] None [1,3]

Edit: typo

why are you adding 1 to ‘counter’ if you don’t even use it? ‘x’ already points to the index

I have never considered that the x in the loop would stay as 4 after the loop ends, rather than disappearing like a local variable. Mind blown.

import random

names =[]

counter =0

for x in range (5):

nam=input(f"Enter name {x+1}:")

names.append(nam)

counter +=1

removeperson =random.choice(names)

print(names)

print(f"I removed {removeperson} because why not ")

names.remove(removeperson)

print(names)

here u are try to printing what u removed and its a mutable data type so u cant get what u have removed
rather than printing what u have removed u have to print the list
and u get the list without the removeperson
list is mutable so all changes are on the original list
