So like this? def print_n(s,n): i = 0 while i < n: print s, i += 1 print_n('a',3) So this is basically making i bigger by +1 every time the while loop passes until it passes n, then it becomes false right? Also, with this exercise it’s using a doctest so I don’t actually call the function so I can’t figure out a way to make the string’s print on separate lines without changing the doctest code? Thanks for all of the help! _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
