[Solved] Gas Attack returning "0"

Solved
1

I checked my code and I can’t find any errors, but it always tells the cannon to use 0 grams.
Here’s my code.

# Calculate the total health of all the ogres.

def sumHealth(enemies):
    # Create a variable and set it to 0 to start the sum.
    totalHealth = 0
    # Initialize the loop index to 0
    enemyIndex = 0
    # While enemyIndex is less than the length of enemies array
    while enemyIndex < len(enemies):
        enemy = enemies[enemyIndex]
        # Add the current enemy's health to totalHealth
        if enemy:
            enemies[totalHealth] += enemy.health
        # Increment enemyIndex by 1.
        enemyIndex +=1
    return totalHealth

# Use the cannon to defeat the ogres.
cannon = hero.findNearest(hero.findFriends())
# The cannon can see through the walls.
enemies = cannon.findEnemies()
# Calculate the sum of the ogres' health.
ogreSummaryHealth = sumHealth(enemies)
hero.say("Use " + ogreSummaryHealth + " grams.")

That’s the problem. (20)

When I looked at others posts in this topic, I saw that one person had the two mixed up, so that he was changing the enemy’s health, so I switched mine around because I was doing the same, but it still won’t work :rage:

I removed the enemies and brackets from totalHealth and it worked fine.

That’s what I meant… Do you know what the enemies and brackets are actually doing?

just had this exact same issue. it seems that equipping twilight glasses is key to success here for some reason…even though the game tells you the cannon sees through walls.

Thanks, I was really stuck on this one and this really helped, I was doing the same thing :sweat_smile:
