If it doesn't work then fix it and it will work.  Alternatively define 
what "it doesn't work" means as I've run out of crystal balls, every 
single one of them is u/s.  I've been working them so hard recently 
because not enough newbies provide the data we need to work with.

Another choice is to go away and read one of hundreds of Python 
tutorials.  There's a fair chance that one of them will cover what you 
need to know.  Here for example is a rather obscure one that I first 
stumbled across many moons ago https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/index.html
