I am encountering a problem with my Python code and need help from the community. I am trying to split a string into separate elements using the split() function, but I keep getting an error message that says “AttributeError: ‘list’ object has no attribute ‘split'”. Here’s the code that I have written:
`my_list = [‘apple, banana, cherry, date’]`
`new_list = my_list.split(‘,’)`
I have checked the documentation for Python and it seems that split() is a valid function for strings, but I’m not sure why I’m getting this error. I have also tried converting my list into a string using the join() function before using split(), but that didn’t seem to work either. Can someone please help me figure out what I’m doing wrong and how to fix the problem?
Additionally, I need to split multiple strings that are stored in a list, which makes this problem more challenging. I’m not sure how to iterate through each element of the list and apply the split() function to each one. Here’s what my list looks like:
`my_list = [‘apple, banana, cherry, date’, ‘elephant, giraffe, hippo, lion’, ‘happy, jolly, merry, joyful’]`
I need to split each of these strings into separate elements so that I can work with them individually. Can someone please explain how to do this in Python in a way that is easy to understand? Thank you in advance for your help!

I am having some trouble with normalizing the values of a list in Python. I am working on a project where I need to compare two different sets of data, but the values are on different scales. I have a list of values that range from 0 to 200, and another list with values ranging from 0 to 10. To normalize them, I have been trying to create a function that will take in the original list and return the normalized list.
Here is the code that I have been working with:

def normalize_data(data):
max_val = max(data)
min_val = min(data)
normalized = []

for val in data:
normalized.append((val - min_val) / (max_val - min_val))

return normalized
data1 = [24, 35, 100, 160, 199]
data2 = [2, 4, 6, 8, 10]
norm_data1 = normalize_data(data1)
norm_data2 = normalize_data(data2)

When I run this code, I get the normalized values, but they are not what I was expecting. The values in the first list are normalized to be between 0 and 1, which is correct, but the values in the second list are divided by 20 instead of 10. I’m not sure why this is happening, and I’ve tried changing the values in the function, but I still can’t seem to get it right. Can anyone please help me figure out what I’m doing wrong?
