I need to print the hellos + 'World'. How do I do this?

I can't figure out the proper way to write this loop. What am I doing wrong?

loop.py
hellos = [
    "Hello",
    "Tungjatjeta",
    "Grüßgott",
    "Вiтаю",
    "dobrý den",
    "hyvää päivää",
    "你好",
    "早上好"
]

for hello in hellos:
    if hello in hellos:
        print(hello + 'World')

1 Answer

Two things:

  1. You don't need the if statement to check if hello is in hellos because your for loop only runs on items that are already in hellos
  2. You are missing a space in front of world.

It should be like this:

for hello in hellos:
  print(hello + " World")
