Why is my function returning full list instead of just a total count?

I’ve been working on a problem for a class that involves random number generation and returning a count for those divisible by 7 or 13. The function appears to work, or is at least returning the proper values along the steps. But, it returns a list for the count instead of a single value. What am I doing wrong? The requirements and my code so far are:

Develop and call a function that will:

1. Generate a random number n with a value between 1 and 1,000.
2. In the range of (n, n+200), iterate each number and count how many of them are divisible by 7 and how many of them are divisible by 13.
3. Print out the result

import random
    
def randDiv():
    n = random.randint(1, 1000)
    randList=[]
    for x in range(n, n+200):
        if (x%7==0) or (x%13==0):
            randList.append(str(x))
            total = len(randList)
            print(total)
randDiv()

Answer

You are printing the total in each iteration. You should print it after for loop.

import random

def randDiv():
  n = random.randint(1, 1000)
  randList=[]
  for x in range(n, n+200):
    if (x%7==0) or (x%13==0):
        randList.append(x)
    
  print(len(randList))


randDiv()
