I'm trying to go through an array from any position l to the end, but once it reaches the last position instead of leaving the while cycle it shows me an error "list index out of range"
while l <= len(ordenado):
ñ = ordenado[l]
contador2 = contador2+ñ
l = l+1
I've seen many answers about this theme but I haven't been able to apply it to my problem, also any help will be really appreciated.
python list are 0 indexed so you need to use.
while l < len(ordenado):
for your case for loop is more suitable.
mylist = ['a', 'b', 'c']
for i, item in enumerate(mylist):
print(i, item) #where i will be 0,1,2 and item will be a,b,c
Replace
while l <= len(ordenado):
With:
while l < len(ordenado):
The reason is that python list indices range from zero to
len(ordenado) - 1.
>>> mylist = ['a', 'b', 'c']
>>> mylist[0]
'a'
>>> mylist[len(mylist)-1]
'c'
>>> mylist[len(mylist)]
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
IndexError: list index out of range
As you can see, mylist[len(mylist)-1] accesses the last element of the list. Any index larger than that will generate an IndexError.
l < len(ordenado)instead of<=forloop. Or justsum().
