TypeError: 'int' object is not subscriptable

Question

I\'m trying to create a simple program that tells you your lucky number according to numerology. I keep on getting this error:

File \"number.py\", line 12, i         


        

Answer 1

If you want to sum the digit of a number, one way to do it is using sum() + a generator expression:

sum(int(i) for i in str(155))

I modified a little your code using sum(), maybe you want to take a look at it:

birthday = raw_input("When is your birthday(mm/dd/yyyy)? ")
summ = sum(int(i) for i in birthday[0:2])
sumd = sum(int(i) for i in birthday[3:5])
sumy = sum(int(i) for i in birthday[6:10])
sumall = summ + sumd + sumy
print "The sum of your numbers is", sumall
sumln = sum(int(c) for c in str(sumall)))
print "Your lucky number is", sumln
