you need to define myAns above

T = int(input("food i have?: "))
myAns = []
for x in range(0, T):
    value = float(input("What is the value of item %d: "))
    myAns.append(value)
myAns.sort()
print("The result is: ", myAns)

I'm not sure what you're trying to do, but you need to initialize your myAns list before appending to it.

T = int(input("food i have?: "))
myAns = []
for x in range(0, T):
    value = float(input("What is the value of item %d: " % x))
    myAns.append(value)
myAns.sort()
print("The result is: ", myAns)

You need to append to myAns after reach loop, so it must be indented.

myAns.append(value)

It also must be defined in advance. 

myAns=[]

You should add to the top:

myAns = []

or:

myAns = list()

I think your code should be:

T = int(input("food i have?: "))
myAns = []
for x in range(0, T):
    value = float(input("What is the value of item {}: ".format(x+1)))
    myAns.append(value)
myAns.sort()
print("The result is:", myAns)
