[Solved] How do you add a list to jump to a line on my code?

The following code should provide a framework on which to build and extend the program in your question. Most of the code should be fine as it currently written, but you can expand its functionality if needed. To continue building on what questions can be asked and what answers are given, consider adding more sections to the database at the top of the file. The cases are can be easily augmented.

"""Cell Phone Self-Diagnoses Program

The following program is designed to help users to fix problems that they may
encounter while trying to use their cells phones. It asks questions and tries
to narrow down what the possible cause of the problem might be. After finding
the cause of the problem, a recommended action is provided as an attempt that
could possibly fix the user's device."""
