Code showing no output whatsoever (python)

Question

Trying to make a little Fibonacci game where the user guesses a set amount of steps. I'm trying to make a functioning Fibonacci generator to make the lists to refer to later, but nothing is showing up. I'm sure I'm returning the values. What am I doing wrong?

""" Core Fibonacci Code

a = int(input("How many steps of fibonacci would you like? "))

def fibonacci(counter):
    a = 0
    b = 1
    count = 2
    print (a)
    print (b)
    fib = [0, 1]
    while (counter > count):
        c = a + b
        print (c)
        a = b
        b = c
        count += 1

fibonacci(a)

"""

def fibonacci(counter):
    a = 0
    b = 1
    count = 2
    print (a)
    print (b)
    fib_list.append = a
    fib_list.append = b
    while (counter > count):
        c = a + b
        fib_list.append = c
        a = b
        b = c
        count += 1

def homescreen():
    print = ("Which gamemode would you like to play?")
    print = ("EASY - 10 Steps")
    print = ("MEDIUM - 25 Steps")
    print = ("HARD - 50 Steps")
    request = input("")
    if request is "Easy" or "easy":
        z = 10
    elif request is "Medium" or "medium":
        z = 25
    elif request is "Hard" or "hard":
        z = 50
    return z


homescreen()
fibonacci(z)
print (fib_list)

If you're returning something from a function, then, while you use that function, you need to use a variable to store that returned value. For eg, z = homescreen() — Gautam J

well your fib_list is in the in the wrong scope. either declare it outside your fibonacci(counter) function or return it and get it with fib_list = fibonacci(z) — wayneOS

Use print("Which gamemode would you like to play?") and not print=.

You use such format when your returning something from the called function. eg:

def foo():
        #Something
       return y
 x=foo()

Note : Use the function append(), dont use lib_list.append=a. Also declare lib_list outside the function fibonacci() as you're mentioning it in the function call outside of the function.
