Re: [Tutor] need a hint
I realize the code snippet was bad. It was meant to be pseudo code. I was
on my phone and far from pc. Anyway
I tried this:
already_seen = set()
for name in last_names:
if name in already_seen:
print("Already seen", name)
else:
already_seen.add(name)
I am not seeing a pattern in the output to give me a clue as to why it is
doing this. Also, it seems to be referencing chars when variable lastName
is an item in a list.

Re: [Tutor] need a hint
What I am having trouble with is finding a way to say: if lastName appears
more than once, print something.
I ran a bit of code:
For x in lastname
If lastname = udall
Print something
This prints x twice.
I think what I might be hung up on is understanding the ways that I can use
a loop. I know I need to loop through the list of names, which I have, and
set a condition dor the apppearance of a string occurring more than once in
a list but I don't know how to translate this to code. How do I say: if
you see it twice, do something?

You're currently doing this:
> senateInfo = {}
> senateInfo[lastName] = state
Instead of storing just a state in the dict you could store a list of
states e.g.:
senateInfo[lastName] = [state]
Then when you find a lastName that is already in the dict you can do:
senateInfo[lastName].append(state)
to append the new state to the existing list of states. You'll need a
way to test if a particular lastName is already in the dict e.g.:
if lastName in senateInfo:

[Tutor] need a hint
The following program works and does what I want except for one last
problem I need to handle. The program reads a txt file of senators and
their associated states and when I input the last name it gives me their
state. The problem is "Udall". There are two of them. The txt file is
read by line and put into a dictionary with the names split. I need a
process to handle duplicate names. Preferably one that will always work
even if the txt file was changed/updated. I don't want the process to
handle the name "Udall" specifically. For a duplicate name I would like
to tell the user it is not a unique last name and then tell them to enter
first name and then return the state of that senator.
Thanks

Hi Oliver, Yeah, Magic Folders used to be a favorite program of mine. Only problem (that I knew it used to have -- the problem still might be there, not sure) is that if you used any of the Windows "repair" or maintenance tools on your system, such as defrag or diskscan, you can lose your data. Magic Folders creates a file system on the hard drive that "looks" like lost clusters. Because of this, Windows jumps in and tries to "fix" it for you.

Hi Suranga, This is a Python programming group. If you have any Python questions, then this is the place to ask them. However, Anything outside of that scope will probably not get you too much help. ;-) Byron --- This message was sent using IMP, the Internet Messaging Program. ___ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor

Python prefers to encourage its developers to contribute to the general community. However, you can commercially write apps in Python and then sell them -- without having to make them open source or give-awayable to the general community.

Re: [Tutor] What's going on with this code? Error message supplied.
Hi Nathan, It appears that you are just starting to learn the Python programming language. May I suggest that you check out the following FREE resources -- they will help to get you started and running smoothly with Python. Learning With Python http://www.greenteapress.com/thinkpython/ After you have gone though that tutorial, I would then recommend the following advanced materials: http://www.devshed.com/c/b/Python/ HTHs (Hope this helps), Byron --- -- No virus found in this outgoing message.

If you search google for "web hosters" + Python, you will find a variety of them.
