I got it! Thanks for all your help!!! Please tell me what you think:
def anafind():
fin = open('short.txt') #one word per line
mapdic = {} #this dic maps letters
to anagrams
for line in fin:
line = line.strip()
templist = sorted(list(line)) #sort letters
newtlist = (''.join(templist)) #join letters
if newtlist not in mapdic:
mapdic[newtlist] = [line]
if line not in mapdic[newtlist]:
mapdic[newtlist].append(line)
for value in mapdic.values():
if len(value) <= 1:
pass
else:
print value
I avoid creating a temporary variable if it's only used once immediately,
so I would have written:
newtlist = ''.join(sorted(list(line)))
Looks pretty good, and I found the other tips in parallel responses useful
to me too!
