I got this error twice today while creating lists of lists of complicated stuff. The first time I was puzzled, but the second time I knew that I had just forgotten a comma. If you google this, you will too.
Reduced example >>> [[1,2,3] # forgot comma [4,5,6]] Traceback (most recent call last): File "<pyshell#10>", line 2, in <module> [4,5,6]] TypeError: list indices must be integers, not tuple Terry Jan Reedy -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
