python list object is not callable

Question

I am getting an error while executing a python program. The line at which error is occurring is as follows:

print  wordlists(len(words))

This the error I am getting:

TypeError: 'list' object is not callable.

Answer 1

The error in your problem states the list is not callable. This happens because you are trying to access/use a python list but using parenthesis for it. Parenthesis are applied to call a function and because a list is not a function, you get this error. To access or use a python list, you have to use square brackets. Try this:

print worldlists[len(words)]
