inside that for loop, count the number of letters that are in s and
come before the loop variable ch. You will also need an accumulator to
build the permutation t

Hi List,
I know a geometric sequence can be produced by:
series = [2**x for x in range(7)]
But I would like to curtail the sequence before the last element
excedes a certain value.

Does it have to be in a dictionary format? I'd rather use sq
inting out this way.

n = 5
all the numbers should be characters e.g.
n = "5"
etc.
There are many ways to get the desired output.
One is:
collect the characters in one list, say numberList
Then use slicing to insert the "-" e.g. numberList[3:3] = "-&

Thanks Bob! :) A list is great idea. I'm just trying to figure out how to print
the number across like a phone number 555- instead of downward. I'm stuck
on that.
I repeat what I said before:
There are many ways to get the desi
rmatting. Each %s is replaced by the next string
in the tuple.
Just be sure you have exactly 7 characters in the list or this will fail.

Thanks Bob! :) I'm very new at programming in Python. I appreciate your
feedback.
Here are some improvements to consider:
import string
def main():
d = {"1" : phoneTranslator, "2" : backwardString} # map user
s
elements in a list.
Apply min() and max() to the list.
Use list.index() to get the position of the value in the list.
Or write your own program to examine each value, tracking when it gets
smaller (bigger) and also tracking the index where that change occurs,
