I think the way you give hints and ideas about how to accomplish something in Python is excellent. I sometimes work through these problems just to build skills. I know it would be easy for you to provide a built solution, but this exercises the brain in a much better way. Kudos, Alan.

Hint 1: Learn about FOR loops.

Hint 2: Learn about the RANGE command.

Hint 3: Show us some code you have written. Even if yours doesn't
work, we can probably spot WHY it doesn't work.
