No. If you would like help understanding what's wrong with your code, that we can help with.

Please ask more specific questions though.

Examples of a good question:

  Code:

def stringtonumber():
    list=[]
    print("enter the names you want")
    for i in range(10):
        name=raw_input(i)
        list.append(name)
        print("after appending list is:")
        print(list)
    list.sort()
    print("after sorting list is")
    print(list)
    x=raw_input("enter the word which you want to count")
    list.count(x)


My code here prompts the user for input, building a list.
After building the list, I prompt the user for another string.
I'm trying to print the number of occurrences of that string in the list that was built before, but for some reason I don't get any output.

Any ideas why?
Help would be greatly appreciated.
