copied!<p>Append the values to a list:</p> <pre><code>L = [] for i in range(n): L.append(raw_input('Rating: ')) </code></pre> <p>Then, you can get the average of the list:</p> <pre><code>sum(map(int, L)) / len(l) </code></pre> <p>Or, you can use a list comprehension:</p> <pre><code>L = [int(raw_input('Rating: ')) for _ in range(n)] sum(L) / len(L) </code></pre> <hr> <p>However, if you're dealing with floats, then use this to get the average:</p> <pre><code>from __future__ import division sum(L) / len(L) </code></pre> <p><code>from __future__ import division</code> changes the <code>/</code> to a true division operator. True division is active in python 3, but as you are on python 2.7, you can import it directly.</p> <hr> <p>With your code, there are some problems:</p> <p><code>L.append(raw_input('Rating: '))</code> returns <code>None</code>. You don't need to assign it to a variable, so get rid of the <code>m =</code>.</p> <p>However, it seems you want to keep the value of <code>m</code> so you can write it in the file. You can then do something like:</p> <pre><code>m = raw_input("Rating: ") L.append(m) </code></pre> <p>There is also no need for <code>str(m)</code>, as <code>raw_input()</code> returns a string.</p> <hr> <p>And finally, you should use the <code>with</code> statement when opening files. This saves calling <code>close()</code>:</p> <pre><code>with open('music.txt','a') as f: for i in range(n): line = raw_input('Next Track: ') m = raw_input("Rating: ") L.append(m) overall = sum(map(int, L)) / len(L) f.write("Track Name: " + line + " - Rating: " + m + "\n") </code></pre>
