I've decided not to waste my summer and start learning python. I figured I'd start learning looping techniques so I wanted to start with a basic list of numbers, aka, write a for loop that will generate the numbers 1 - 10.

This is what I have:

def generateNumber(num):i=0 
for i in range(num):return i
return i

and the code doesn't work. I want to get an output in a list like this:

>>> generateNumber(10)
[0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10]

Trying to be consistent with what you first tried, you could do something like this

def generateNumber(num):mylist = []for i in range(num+1):mylist.append(i)return mylistx = generateNumber(10)

but, you could, instead just say,

x = range(10+1)  # gives a generator that will make a list

or

x = list(range(10+1))  # if you want a real list

In general though, you should keep this list based on inputting the number 10 so it is [0...9] and not [0...10].
