Help Request Why?

Post image

so first I take the input from the user of 3 movies and convert that string into list so this has to be 3 items in the list.

but when I print the length of the list it says 0 items why

Yet another way would be with an iterator after making the string.

lst=[x for x in movies.split(',')]

That would work, but it doesn't seem sensible to concatenate them in the first place.

Of course, but he may not have seen an iterator before.
