TypeError: 'function' object is unsubscriptable in Python?

Question

I have an array of string objects, with color codes for plotting graphs, which looks like this: colors = ["ob-", "or-", "oy-", "og-", "om-", "op-"]

When i try to access it with a for loop (where its index is less than the array length) i get the following error message: TypeError: 'function' object is unsubscriptable

The accessing code looks like this:

for i in range(len(files)):
    l = plt.plot(data[0], data[i+1], colors[i], label='Iteration-' + str(i))

I printed the color before and everything seems fine, I tried to check this on previous posts there were many, but i couldnt find quite the right solution.

So what could it be the problem or solution to this?

Many thanks in advance.

There's nothing in the code you've provided that would produce the error you're receiving. If you're certain that's the line that's throwing the exception my bet is that in your actual source file you've typed str[i] instead of str(i). Otherwise, you're going to have to provide more information / code.
