5,304 Pointswhat is "the string version of the list"?
def summarize(lst): print ("The sum of {} is {}.".format(lst, add_list(lst)))
this doesn't work and I don't know why
# 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):
tot = 0
for i in lst:
tot += i
return tot
def summarize(lst):
print ("The sum of {} is {}.".format(list(lst), add_list(lst)))
