在python 3中为单元格分配用户输入值

Question

i've been tasked with

"Ask the user to select a cell in the table and a number to put into the cell" from a partial magic square table.

so far I have

numbers = input("Enter two integers: ")
numbers = numbers.split(" ")
y = [int(x) for x in numbers]
print(y)

this gives me the numbers, but how do I make them relate to columns and rows? basically, if user inputs '1 and 2', how can I relate them to a column number 1 and row number 2?

thankyou

Answer 1

Ask the user to select a cell in the table

This code prompts for a string of two numbers and converts the first two numbers separated by space into integers. This is more correct than y = [int(x) for x in numbers] because y would be a list of ints, not an int itself.

numbers = input("Enter two integers: ")
x, y = map(int, numbers.split(" "))
print("row", y, "col", x)

and a number to put into the cell

Assuming you have a 2D list square variable that you can access by row and column... Just assign the cell value

cell_value = input("Enter a cell value")
square[y][x]  = int(cell_value)
