Trying to make a phone book using python - python-3.x

Question

I am trying to make a phone book using these instructions
Write a program that creates 2 lists: one of names and one of phone numbers. Give these variables appropriate names (for example names and numbers). Using a for loop, have the user enter 3 names and 3 numbers of people for the phone book. Next: display the entries from the phone book, name and then number. Use a for loop. Next, ask the user to enter a name. Store their input in a variable. Use a search to see if the name is entered in the name list. If the name is in the name list, print the number. If not have the program respond, “Name not found.
Your output should look like:
Name Number
sally 11
bob 22
carl 33  
Number you are looking for is: 11
All I want to know is how do you make a simple list out of user inputed data. so I can do this question.
Pseudocode is
#LOOP THREE TIMES
# names = GET INPUT name
# numbers = GET INPUT number
#END LOOP
#LOOP THREE TIMES
# PRINT (name) in names, (number) in numbers
#END LOOP
# searchName = GET INPUT "Enter a name for Search"
#IF searchName IN names THEN
# PRINT matching number
# LOOP names
# IF searchName == name THEN
# foundIndex = name(index)
# searchPhoneNumber = phoneNumber[foundIndex]
# END IF
# END LOOP
# PRINT searchPhoneNumber
#ELSE
# PRINT "Name Not Found"
#END IF

Answer 1

use this:
names = []
phone_numbers = []
num = 3
for i in range(num):
name = input("Name: ")
phone_number = input("Phone Number: ") # for convert to int => int(input("Phone Number: "))
names.append(name)
phone_numbers.append(phone_number)
print("\nName\t\t\tPhone Number\n")
for i in range(num):
print("{}\t\t\t{}".format(names[i], phone_numbers[i]))
search_term = input("\nEnter search term: ")
print("Search result:")
if search_term in names:
index = names.index(search_term)
phone_number = phone_numbers[index]
print("Name: {}, Phone Number: {}".format(search_term, phone_number))
else:
print("Name Not Found")

Answer 2

To add a name or number to the appropriate list, use the append function i.e.
numberlist.append(number_that_was_input)
or
namelist.append(name_that_was_input)
and as #cricket007 so eloquently states, we do like to see that you at least try to do things for yourself.

Answer 3

To receive input from the user, use the input() function.
Example:
name = input('type in name')
print(name)
#Outputs the name you typed.
To add that value into a list use the append.
Example:
my_list = [] #Initialize list first.
my_list.append(name) # this will add the contents of variable name to your list.
# my_list now looks like this: ["user817205"]
Since you have to do this 3 times, it's smart to use a for loop to do that,
you can iterate 3 times through a block of code using the following:
for _ in range(3):
#type the code you want to repeat 3 times here!
PS.: Remember you only need to initialize your list once, so keep the my_list = [] out of the for loop.
