IndexError: list index out of range and python

Question

I\'m telling my program to print out line 53 of an output. Is this error telling me that there aren\'t that many lines and therefore can not print it out?

Answer 1

The way Python indexing works is that it starts at 0, so the first number of your list would be [0]. You would have to print[52], as the starting index is 0 and therefore line 53 is [52].

Subtract 1 from the value and you should be fine. :)
