Ian,

Try the following small adjustment:

>>> somewords = ['goo', 'foo', 'loo', 'moo', 'too']
>>> fillme = []
>>> for word in somewords:
...          fillme.append(word)    #using the append() method rather than
the increment operator
>>> fillme
['goo', 'foo', 'loo', 'moo', 'too']

This is a very typical task, and append() seems to me to be the best way of
doing it.

Cheers,

Pijus
