Why doesn’t this code work here:
coin_toss_again = np.array([[coin_toss],[0,0,1,1,1]])

If you remove the brackets around ‘coin_toss’ it will work. ‘coin_toss’ does not need brackets as it is already an array/list.
Why does it matter that the results of ‘coin_toss’ goes first in the new array? I was stumped on why my code didn’t work and the solution was that it was because I had the result of ‘coin_toss’ listed as the 2nd part of the array.
Hi,
When using np.array to create a list of lists and printing the result afterwards, do I need to insert the list() function within the print statement ?
new_array = np.array([[92, 94, 88, 91, 87], [79, 100, 86, 93, 91], [87, 85, 72, 90, 92]])
print(new_array) OR print(list(new_array)) — I do not understand when list() needs to be in the print statement…
Grateful for any advice, thanks!
You can create a python list in two ways;
list( <some data> )
or
[ <some data> ]
They are interchangeable, and you should get the same result.

So you need to retype the first array and the second to append the new list? How is this easier than just using a list and .append as opposed to an array?
I don’t know what is wrong with my code.
