1,594 PointsPutting "Fun" Back in "Function Challange 2
I'm wondering why my Summarize wont work. Isn't this a nice sollution not to duplicate code but to reuse it from the add_list function?
# add_list([1, 2, 3]) should return 6
# summarize([1, 2, 3]) should return "The sum of [1, 2, 3] is 6."
# Note: both functions will only take *one* argument each.
def add_list(lst) :
result = 0
for item in lst:
result += item
return result
def summarize(lst2):
print("The sum of {} is {}".format(str(lst2),add_list(lst2)))
