Observations: a) There is no need to import array, you are only using a list. b) If you try and index into a list using a number greater than the list length, you will receive an error "IndexError: list index out of range", hence if you have a list where len(list) is x items you will never be able to use x! as an index to the list. c) To refer to a single member of a list, use list[n] where n is the zero indexed element you wish to refer to. d) Note point b. l[len(l)!] (or l[Factorials(len(l))]) will always fail. -- Denis McMahon, denismfmcma...@gmail.com -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
