Question

The code is not showing any output. 

import datetime

default_names = ["Justin", "John", "Emilee", "Jim", "Ron", "Sandra", "Veronica", "Whitny"]

default_amounts = [123.55, 94.23, 554.65, 353.4, 322.558441, 32.4, 99.99]

unf_message = """HI {name}!

Thank You for the purchase on {date}

We hope you are excidet about using it. 

Just as a reminder the purchase total was ${total}.

"""

def make_messages(names, amounts):

messages = []

if len(names) == len(amounts):

i = 0

today = datetime.date.today()

txtTime = '{today.month}/{today.day}/{today.year}'.format(today=today)

for name in names:

new_amount = "%.2f" %(amounts[i])

new_message = unf_message.format(

name = name,

date = txtTime,

total = new_amount

)

i += 1

print(new_message)

make_messages(default_names, default_amounts)

Answer 1

The first issue is indentation, but I believe this is where you copied and pasted your code.

The second is the evalaution of the if condition. default_names array is 1 elements larger than default_amounts. Therefore, your if condition is false and exits.

The third is that I believe you are trying to re-iterate over the arrays outputting the message with each combination but there's an issue.

Thanks. I forgot to make both lists the same size. that's the reason why its not working.

I am new to python and the code is from a tutorial.

Answer 2

Indentation is messed up, please post again using the "formatted" format in the editor.

it's fixed now.
list size was not even there.

Answer 3

You never defined {Name} or {Date} or {Amount}
