Kishor Ramanan , Kendra , it is not seen as a helpful behavior when we are going to post a code, as long as the op has not shown his attempt here. it is helpful to give hints and tips, so that the op has a chance to find a solution by himself.

Pronoy Roy , from my point of view you may miss some basics of python. since the task you have not finished is basic stuff, i would recommend to learn from the tutorial *python for beginners*.

Use list comprehension x = [i for i in A if i<0]

you can iterate through the list and check each element if it is a number and that number is < 0 then that's negative value you can store it or print it

Bro, I tried many ways to get negative value from it, but I failed. Please help me if you can.

a = [1,3, -2, 5, -7, -8, 3, 12, "Addy"] # iterate through the list for x in a: # checks if x datatype is int and x < 0 if isinstance(x , int) and x < 0: print(x, end=' ')

Lothar I have mentioned how to do it by hints on the 1st answer but that code is self-explained and I used comments so I think it's helpful to him

Lothar I said earlier that I tried a lot to solve it but couldn't. I posted because I couldn't find any other way. I tried my best.

list(filter(lambda x: isinstance(x, (int,float)) and x<0, A))

You should try to loop through that array and than for each iteration compare it to 0. Hope it helps :) noticed there is a string on the list you should also first loop and remove anything that is not a int

A=[1,3,-2] index=0 while True: b=(A[index]) if b<0: print(b) index+=1

Easy way: for i in A: if i<0: print(i)

Dual filters ☺️ for i in A: if type(i)==int: if i<0: print(i) else: continue
