Python filtering exercise [SPOILER]

Hey everyone, Been struggling in the Python Filtering exercise for a while. I need to print only the names in the list who have 5+ letters. Already tried a while loop, creating a function() etc. When trying to use the filter() and len() together I only get the TypeError message. ### The list ### names = ["David", "John", "Annabelle", "Johnathan", "Veronica"] ############ My ideas run dried :/

Da Silva Miguel Try this↓ names = ["David", "John", "Annabelle", "Johnathan", "Veronica"] print(list(filter(lambda x: len(x) >5,names)))

Use list comprehension like below. [x if len(x)>5 for x in names]

Manikandan the filter condition for list comprehension has to be at the end: print([x for x in names if len(x) > 5])

Thx for the help! Used an identical code like yours but instead of writing lambda x: len(x).... Only had written lambda x: x>5... -_-
