AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'append'

Question

>>> myList[1]
\'from form\'
>>> myList[1].append(s)

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File \"\", line 1, in 
          


        

Answer 1

myList[1] is an element of myList and it's type is string.

myList[1] is str, you can not append to it. myList is a list, you should have been appending to it.

>>> myList = [1, 'from form', [1,2]]
>>> myList[1]
'from form'
>>> myList[2]
[1, 2]
>>> myList[2].append('t')
>>> myList
[1, 'from form', [1, 2, 't']]
>>> myList[1].append('t')
