What's TypeError: 'int' object is not iterable?

[stetim94]

we can’t loop over integers. That will give a TypeError.

Why would you want a loop?

[alison47]

Right…Thx!!!

[stetim94]

Did that solve your problem?

[alison47]

why can the loop b used in this context?

[stetim94]

because my_list is type list:

print type(my_list)

while gold was of type integer:

print type(inventory['gold'])

loop works fine on string and list, just not on integer
