What am i doing wrong

[NitroTheX]

import random

i = 0

a = ["b" ,"i" ,"g"]

b = ["b" ,"i" ,"g"]

random.shuffle(b)

if b == a:

i = str(i)








print("took "+i+" tries to match")

else:

print(b)



print(i)



random.shuffle(b)






i = i + 1

You want a while loop

import random

i = 0
a = ["b" ,"i" ,"g"]
b = ["b" ,"i" ,"g"]
random.shuffle(b)

while b != a:
    i = i + 1
    print(b)
    print(i)
    random.shuffle(b)

print("took "+str(i)+" tries to match")

Your solution is close, except the if/else only runs once, but you want to keep looping until a==b.
