How To Fix Typeerror: 'float' Object Is Not Subscriptable And An .append That Isn't Working

This is the module that will input a two-dimensional array containing employee names and their corresponding salaries. Here the program is only taking one input and moving on inst

Solution 1:

To fix your .append issue (also your second return statement is never going to execute, see below on how to return both lists):

Your loop isn't continuing is because you're returning inside the loop, thus terminating the function. Move your return statement outside of the loop (single unindent).

while not done:
    # do stuffreturn salary, names

To fix your TypeError I think the problem is here:

for i inrange(len(names)):
    salary = salary[i] * 1000# Up to this point salary is a list, here it turns into the ith value of the list multiplied by 1000print(salary)

Instead, replace that entire for loop with:

salary = [s*1000 for s in salary]
for s in salary:
    print(s) # This should now print the multiplied salaries.

Some other issues - you have two return statements followed by one another - the function will finish executing after the first return, and never execute the return below that one; if you want to return both salary and names use return names, salary (and maybe rename salary to salaries so that people can easily tell that it's a bunch of salaries, not just one).
