Python List object attribute 'append' is read-only

Question

as the title says, in python, I\'m trying to make it so when someone types in a choice (in this case Choice13) then it deletes the old password from the list passwords and adds

Answer 1

or you could modify the same list slot by doing:

passwords[passwords.index('mrjoeadmin')] = Choice13

Answer 2

To append something to a list, you need to call the append method:

passwords.append(Choice13)

As you've seen, assigning to the append method results in an exception as you shouldn't be replacing methods on builtin objects -- (If you want to modify a builtin type, the supported way to do that is via subclassing).
