Arrays/Lists - How to add and change stored data (Solved)

[Llunet1]

I used to work with Java (for a bit, I'm not an advanced programmer or anything like that, but I do know quite a bit) and there was a "variable" of sorts called arrays. I know I can make them on ren'py, however I can't figure out how to change what is stored in the "compartments" or add new ones. I'm fine with not being able to add new sections (I can deal with that) however I need to be able to change what it stored.

If you know how, please tell me! I would love to be able to use this feature properly (because I have long lists of variables, and having it stored in one place would be much easier for me)!
If you know this cannot be done, also tell me.

Thank you!

You're welcome

That link is only for sorting data... (Unless I'm totally blind and missing something)
I want to be able to change what is written in my list.

Just like:

Code: Select all

$ x = "Something"
$ x = "Something Else"

I am able to change the variable later on... however I can't seem to be able to change for example...

Code: Select all

$ list = ["1", "2", "3"]
$ list[0] = "3"

Or something like that. (I thought it would be changed by doing that, which it didn't work.)

^^; However, thank you for replying.

Wait. WHOOPS.
I realized my mistake in the code.

I put two equal signs instead of one. WOW.
It works now.
Sorry ^^;

Glad you figured it out but if you ever get stuck again:

Code: Select all

>>> l = list()
>>> l.append(1)
>>> l.append(2)
>>> l
[1, 2]
>>> l[0] = 100
>>> l
[100, 2]
>>> for i, v in enumerate(l):
	if v == 2:
		l[i] = 200

		
>>> l
[100, 200]
>>> 

You can read everything about lists in Python documentation or tutorials.

Glad to hear everything's better! If your problem is solved, I think it'd be a good idea to change the subject line.

Yes, sorry. I forgot about that and just changed it now ^^;
