Remember to:

• Ask your Python question, not if you can ask or if there's an expert who can help.
• Show a code sample as text (rather than a screenshot) and the error message, if you've got one.
• Explain what you expect to happen and what actually happens.

Make a for loop running through your list, you can set it to loop through every second option or set a counter with some logic to check if current loop is able to divide by 2.
Within the loop extract current item from the list and add it to the other.

the quickest way is to just slice the list for every 2nd element

your_list = [0,1,2,3]
other = your_list[1::2]```

no, that'd be your_list[2::2]

your_list[1::2] is 1, 3, 5, etc

the syntax is start:stop:step, empty stop meaning to the end
