TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for -: 'list' and 'list'

Question

I am trying to implement the Naive Gauss and getting the unsupported operand type error on execution. Output:

  execfile(filename, namespace)
  File \"/media         


        

Answer 1

This question has been answered but I feel I should also mention another potential cause. This is a direct result of coming across the same error message but for different reasons. If your list/s are empty the operation will not be performed. check your code for indents and typos
