I want to append float to list, but I got an error like this:
<ipython-input-47-08d9c3f8f180> in maxEs()
12 Es = lists[0]*0.3862 + lists[1]*0.3091 + lists[2]*0.4884
13 aaa = []
---> 14 Es.append(aaa)
15
AttributeError: 'float' object has no attribute 'append'
I guess I can't append float to list. Can I add floats to list another way?
This is my code:
import math
def maxEs():
for a in range(1, 101):
for b in range(1,101):
for c in range(1,101):
if a+b+c == 100 :
lists = []
lists.append(a*0.01)
lists.append(b*0.01)
lists.append(c*0.01)
Es = lists[0]*0.3862 + lists[1]*0.3091 + lists[2]*0.4884
aaa = []
Es.append(aaa)

I don't know what you want, but you are trying to append a list to a float not the other way round.
Should be
aaa.append(Es)
The other answer already explained the main problem with your code, but there is more:
- as already said, it has to be
aaa.append(Es)(you did it right for the other list) - speaking of the other list: you don't need it at all; just use the values directly in the formula
aaais re-initialized and overwritten in each iteration of the loop; you should probably move it to the top- you do not need the inner loop to find
c; once you knowaandb, you can calculatecso that it satisfies the condition - you can also restrict the loop for
b, so the result does not exceed 100 - finally, you should probably return some result (the
maxofaaamaybe?)
We do not know what exactly the code is trying to achieve, but maybe try this:
def maxEs():
aaa = []
for a in range(1, 98 + 1):
for b in range(1, 99-a + 1):
c = 100 - a - b
Es = 0.01 * (a * 0.3862 + b * 0.3091 + c * 0.4884)
aaa.append(Es)
return max(aaa)
