TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for -: ‘list’ and ‘list’

You can’t subtract a list from a list.

>>> [3, 7] - [1, 2]
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for -: 'list' and 'list'

Simple way to do it is using numpy:

>>> import numpy as np
>>> np.array([3, 7]) - np.array([1, 2])
array([2, 5])

You can also use list comprehension, but it will require changing code in the function:

>>> [a - b for a, b in zip([3, 7], [1, 2])]
[2, 5]
