I am a beginner programmer, taking a class for university right now and I am making a program that uses two parallel lists to create the Christmas song: The Twelve Days of Christmas. I was able to do it but I have these if statements that are just an eyesore to look at and I couldn't figure out another way to do it. Are there any ideas? I was thinking a while loop but I am not sure what I can do with that here>
days = ['first', 'second', 'third', 'fourth', 'fifth', 'sixth', 'seventh', 'eighth', 'ninth', 'tenth', 'eleventh','twelfth']
gifts = ['Twelve drummers drumming,', 'Eleven pipers piping,', 'Ten lords a-leaping,', 'Nine ladies dancing,', 'Eight maids a-milking,', 'Seven swans a-swimming,', 'Six geese a-laying,', 'Five golden rings,', 'Four calling birds,', 'Three French Hens,', 'Two turtle doves,', 'A partridge in a pear tree.']
numberofdays = 11
for each in days:
print("\nOn the " + each + " day of Christmas,")
print("My true love sent to me")
print(gifts[numberofdays])
numberofdays = numberofdays - 1
if numberofdays < 10:
if numberofdays < 9:
print(gifts[numberofdays + 2])
if numberofdays < 8:
print(gifts[numberofdays + 3])
if numberofdays < 7:
print(gifts[numberofdays + 4])
if numberofdays < 6:
print(gifts[numberofdays + 5])
if numberofdays < 5:
print(gifts[numberofdays + 6])
if numberofdays < 4:
print(gifts[numberofdays + 7])
if numberofdays < 3:
print(gifts[numberofdays + 8])
if numberofdays < 2:
print(gifts[numberofdays + 9])
if numberofdays < 1:
print(gifts[numberofdays + 10])
if numberofdays < 0:
print(gifts[numberofdays + 11])
print("And a partridge in a pear tree")
