My Code:
> from csv import reader
> opened_file = open('hacker_news.csv')
> read_file = reader(opened_file)
> hn = list(read_file)
> for row in hn[:5]:
> print(row)
>
> headers = row[0]
> hn = row[1:]
> print(headers)
> for row in hn:
> print(row)
>
> ask_posts = []
> show_posts = []
> other_posts = []
>
> for row in hn:
> title = row[1]
> if title.lower().startswith('ask hn'):
> ask_posts.append(row)
> elif title.lower().startswith('show hn'):
> show_posts.append(row)
> else:
> other_posts.append(row)
>
> print(len(ask_posts))
> print(len(show_posts))
> print(len(other_posts))
What I expected to happen:
my code should show length of these three lists: ask_posts
, show_posts
, and other_posts
What actually happened:
IndexErrorTraceback (most recent call last)
<ipython-input-3-f569afc6fc95> in <module>()

18 for row in hn:
---> 19 title = row[1]
20 if title.lower().startswith('ask hn'):
21 ask_posts.append(row)
IndexError: string index out of range
