I need to read some words text by text in python, and I am getting this error. \"NameError: global name \'wordList\' is not defined.
i=0
with fitxer as f:
fo
You need to define wordList to begin with. And you cannot randomly assign indexes in an empty list. You can easily 'extend' the list with new values.
worldList = []
with fitxer as f:
for line in f:
wordList.extend(line.split())
return wordList
You haven't defined wordList
before you try to use it in your loop or return it.
Try adding wordList = []
below i=0
to declare wordList
as an empty list.
Also, you should use wordList.append(i)
to add your word this list.
wordList
is not instantiated as a list or not in scope.
If Not needed because the object is mutatedwordList
is a global variable, the beginning of your function will need global wordList
If the list should only be in scope of the function you will need to instantiate it as a list.
wordList = []
Edit: as deceze pointed out
Within the function itself you should be appending to the list since the index does not exists.
wordList.append(word)
