Answer 1

1- Do not name your list using the name <<list>> because any variable inside brackets is a list. It may confuse the interpreter.

2- a shortcut for <<else>> statement

def calc(mylist):
if len(mylist)==0:
return 0
else:
return sum(mylist)

# <<sum>> is a built-in python function

list = [1, 3, 4, 2, 5]
x = calc(list)
print(x)

Overall, you nailed it because I can clearly see that you figured out your own personal solution and you worked out your brain. This is the main point, <<Brain Workout>>

Keep going 👏👍

Answer 2

# Hi, iTech !

# You can use the following code to check up whether ’list’
# is a keyword in Python or not.

import keyword
print(keyword.iskeyword('list'))

Answer 3

Per Bratthammar

True. <<list>> is not a reserved keyword. My bad.

Thank you for the refresher 👍

Answer 4

#Hi iTech !
I can't see how the code I showed previously, works
This code is supposed to add individuals instant of the list but after 'else' I can't figure out how it works.
Your answer is much easier to understand but I need to understand the original phrase
