Python tuples and lists

You seem to be iterating over a single record, i.e. a list. It sounds as if you think you have a list of lists ("records"), but you never create that structure.

Obviously if you iterate over strings in a list, build a 1-element tuple from each, and then print it, you will end up printing all the strings in the list.

You should use dictionary if you want to access particular field name.In python list are just like array if you can fetch index sequence then you will be able to see your result.

but my suggestion use dictionary and then convert it into tuples. It will beneficial for you.

You're appending the full_name and job_title as separate entities into your record array. What you want is something like this when adding a new employee:

full_name = str(input("Enter your name: ")).title() job_title = str(input("Enter your job title: ")).title() record.append((full_name, job_title)) print(record[-1]) 

And then to display the name of all employees:

for name, _ in record: print(name) 

You should make a list records (useful name, it holds many records), and add a list (we're calling this variable record) for each employee.

records=[] # a new list, for all employees # mytuple=() # you don't need this choice = "" while (choice != "c"): print() print("a. Add a new employee") print("b. Display all employees") choice = input("Choose an option") if choice == "a": record = list() # create new list for employee full_name = str(input("Enter your name: ")).title() record.append(full_name) print(record) job_title = str(input("Enter your job title: ")).title() record.append(job_title) print(record) elif choice == "b": print("Employee Name:") for record in records: print(record[0]) # record will be a list with first the name, then the title print(record[1])
