arrays - Loop on list causes IndexError - Python -
i trying calculate area of file rle (run length encoding) format numbers using python. having trouble , if statements.
i trying calculate area of cells containing value 201.
my current error:

this looks great effort. issue running out of indices, raises indexerror. although situation requires each item index aware, luckily have poll iterated value.
for such situations, try tracking previous value:
npixels = 0 cells = cellvaluesasintlist # clarity prev = none cell in cells: if cell == 201: npixels += prev # increment operator prev = cell as rule of thumb, avoid mutating indices and iteration. while not direct problem, practice can cause many side effects. if possible, directly iterate sequence , work each iterated item. avoid mutating indices other means, e.g. reverse iteration, mutating copied sequence or use comprehensions.
