What do you mean by count? if you want the number of primes that you have in your list then you can just use the len() function on the list. primes = [2, 3, 5, 7, 11] cnt = len(primes) # cnt = 5 If you want to sum the primes together in the list you can similarly use the sum function on the list. cnt = sum(primes) # cnt = 28

Dignity Digs Just a small advice: If you want to solve some problem then first try your best and then think of getting solution from internet
