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

Question

Can anyone help me with this code?

Jobs = ()
openFile = open(\'Jobs.txt\')
x = 1
while x != 0:
    Stuff = openFile.readline(x)
    if Stuff != \'\':
                


        

Answer 1

I had also experienced the same problem. But I found the solution. For me this worked. Problem:

w=[]
x=[],
y=[],
z=[]
for i in range(4):
 w.append(i) # doesn't throw error
print(w)

This did not give error for w because I had initialized w to w = [] without comma(,) and it treated as list but when I applied the same for x it gave the error because I have initialized it as x = [], with comma here and it treated as tuple.

for i in range(4):
 y.append(i) # throws error AttributeError: 'tuple' object has no attribute 'append' 
print(y)

This solved for me and I have tried this in python3 in pycharm.
