A More Novice Solution to Question 7

[acidsafari]

As I am going through the exercises, I've been trying to solve some of the problems with the basic skills I have.
For Q-7 I have managed to find a solution using more basic code.
Hope it is of help to those learning.
'''
values = input('Please Enter Numbers separated by Comma: ')

l = list() #array list
sl = list() #sub list
i = 0 # i-dimensional counter
j = 0 # j-dimensional counter
d = (values.split(',')) # creating an input list
X = int(d[0])
Y = int(d[1])
while i < X : # creating X-1 arrays
while j < Y : # creating the Y-1 array
y = i * j
j = j + 1
sl.append(y) # creating the Y arrays
j = 0 # to reset the counter back to 0 on each iteration
#print(sl) # print check
i = i + 1
l.append(sl)
sl = list() # RESETING Y array LIST BACK TO 0

print(l)

I think it's also too complicated if you solve it that way (in my opinion). There's just too much assignment operators and there are some unnecessary variables. For a more Pythonic way while maintaining a beginner's mindset, I'd go for this:

x, y = input().split(",")
result = []
nest_arr = []
for i in range(int(x)):
    for j in range(int(y)):
        nest_arr.append(i * j)
    result.append(nest_arr)
    nest_arr = []
print(result)

But then again, it all depends on the beginner I guess, this is just another solution with basic Python topics

Which code is this I don't get it

you are right, that code is more Python, thank you!
