When you read a CSV file in Python, you loop through it to turn it into a _______

list

^ *list *$

You pick an element out of a list by specifying its ______ (one word)

index

Complete the line to find the index number of "Bulgaria" in the list.

index_to_find = country_list.index_______________

("Bulgaria")

(`"`Bulgaria`"`)

Complete the line to find the index number of "bat" in the list.

x = animals_________________

.index("bat")

Complete the line to find the index of "vodka" in the drinks list.

i = _________________________________

drinks.index("vodka")

^ *drinks\.index$•vodka•$ *$

Find the index of a string in a list and assign it to a variable. Make everything up.

target = drinks.index("vodka")

^ *[a-zA-Z_][a-zA-Z0-9_]* = [a-zA-Z_][a-zA-Z0-9_]*\.index$•.+•$ *$

In a single line display the index of a string in a list. Make everything up.

print(drinks.index("gin"))

^ *print$[a-zA-Z_][a-zA-Z0-9_]*\.index\(•.+•$\) *$

You're looking for the index of "Brian" in the following list, whose name is people. Write the first line. Make up the name of the variable that holds the index number.

["First name","Last name","Age","Brian","Obst","36"]

target = people.index("Brian")

[a-zA-Z_][a-zA-Z0-9_]* = people.index$•Brian•$

You're looking for Brian's age in the people list: ["First name","Last name","Age","Brian","Obst","36"]. Complete the second line using the variable from the first line.

target = people.index("Brian")
targets_age_index = ____________

target + 2

^ *target \+ 2 *$

This is the people list: ["First name","Last name","Age","Brian","Obst","36"]. Code three lines that find the first name of the person named Obst and assign the first name to a variable. Make everything up.

index_of_last_name = people.index("Obst")
index_of_first_name = index_of_last_name - 1
first_name = people[index_of_first_name]

^ *([a-zA-Z_][a-zA-Z0-9_]*) = people\.index$•Obst•$\n([a-zA-Z_][a-zA-Z0-9_]*) = \1 - 1\n[a-zA-Z_][a-zA-Z0-9_]* = people\[\2\] *$

This is the first line of the potions.csv file on your Desktop: Potion,Effect,Telltale Property. In IDLE code a Python program that...
