Question

Hi,
I want to know how to find out the number of elements in a list. Is there a attribute to lists or tuples which determine the number of elements in a list or tuple?

Thanks

Answer 1

This is regarding problem 3 in Problem Set 3. I am thinking of implementing two for loops which check key1 against all possible key2 values returned from the exactMatch function. since the exactMatch function returns a list, I want to find out the number of values or the length of the list.

Answer 2

NVM I found it, its the len() attribute lol.

Answer 3

for clarity sake len() is a function not an attribute

Answer 4

yes, you are right, of course. Thanks for making that distinction.
