Python problem

[John Parker]

Ethan,

Thanks for pointing that out.  I commented that code out and then ran it.

It created the list of names.  Now, I just need to figure out how to get the
scores into the list called scores.

It would appear that this is done with a nested for loop.

Thanks,

John
