You're not telling us something important. When I execute the statements you give, I do indeed get 0 for the value of Maty, which is what you expect -- so I see no problem.
But then in your next claim, you say "save the number as Maty-(randomletters)". What does that mean? What Python statement are you running? What means "save"? What is "randomletters"? The error you are getting is usually gotten by code that tries to treat a variable containing a list as a function. Example: someList = [1,2,3] someList(99) Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> TypeError: 'list' object is not callable Gary Herron > > please help > > Ps: rather than doing in your head making a test prgram to run exactly > that might be better > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Looking for last minute shopping deals?
