choices: bummer or bummer or bummer

I don't see why this code is not working.

choices.py 
import random
def nchoices(iters, n):
  random_choice_list = []
  i = 1
  for i in n:
    random_choice = random.choice(iters)
    random_choice_list.append(random_choice)
  return random_choice_list

Did you mean to say "for i in range(n):" ?

If so, you don't need i = 1 before that. The range function creates a list of numbers for you, which you can then iterate over in your for loop.

That's it! All I needed was to change the n to range(n). Thanks.
