How would I create an ordered list from the user input?

def show_list():
    for item in shopping_list:
        print(shopping_list.index(item) +1, end=" ")
        print(" ",item)

This will add the index number of each item, adding 1 to the index position (so the list number starts at 1 instead of 0). The The "end" piece and space before printing the item is to make the item show up on the same line as the numbers a few spaces away.

shopping_list =[] print("Add something to the cart or type 'DONE' to quit.") count = 1 while True: item = str(input(str(count) + ".")) if item == "DONE": print(shopping_list) exit() elif item == "SHOW": print(shopping_list) continue elif item == "HELP": print("Type DONE to quit, SHOW to see your list, or add more items to your list.") continue else: shopping_list.append(item) count += 1
