reference to a value of a list in a user input request in python

To reference a value of a list in a user input request in python, you need to first get the index of the value in the list, then use that index to reference the value in the user input. Here's an example:

main.py
# create a list of animals
animals = ['dog', 'cat', 'bird', 'fish']

# get user input for index
index = int(input('Enter the index of the animal you want to reference: '))

# use the index to reference the value in the list
print('The animal is:', animals[index])
264 chars
9 lines

In this example, the user is prompted to enter the index of the animal they want to reference. The index is then converted to an integer using the int() function. Finally, the index is used to reference the value in the list and print it to the console. Keep in mind that the index starts at 0, so the first item in the list has an index of 0, the second item has an index of 1, and so on.
