As Dave says, the above four lines should run only once, outside the for-
loop. 

Here's a way to avoid the intermediate results list. As a bonus I'm removing 
access to the `base` global variable:

def change_ext(name, new_ext):
"""
>>> change_ext("/deep/blue.eyes", ".c")
'/deep/blue.c'
"""
return os.path.splitext(name)[0] + new_ext

def translate_process(dictionary, tobetranslatedfile):
with open(tobetranslatedfile, "r") as f:
results = (dictionary[line.split()[2]] for line in f)
unique = Counter(results)

with open(change_ext(tobetranslatedfile, OUTPUTFILEEXT), "w") as out:
for residue, numbers in unique.items():
print(residue, numbers, file=out)

Unlikely. Verify that you are running the correct script and looking into

You can redirect the output of print() to a file using the `file` keyword

This part I just wish the output in file like:

as

26SER 2
16LYS 1

still have problem in writing the dict.

What form would you like it transformed to?
A flow chart? Another programming language? A different style of Python 
(Functional programming or OOP maybe?)


I'm not sure what you want here?
In the meantime I'll offer some general comments:


#!/usr/bin/python3
import os.path
mapping={}


DICTIONARYFILE="dictionary.pdb"
TOBETRANSLATEDFILEEXT=".out"
OUTPUTFILEEXT=".txt"

def generate_dict(dictionarysourcefile):
 for line in open(dictionarysourcefile,"r").readlines():


You don't need the readlines(). Just
use

for line in open(dictionarysourcefile,"r"):

That will work just as well.


 parts=line.strip().split()
 mapping[parts[2]]=parts[0]


def translate_process(dictionary,tobetranslatedfile):
 results=[]
 unique={}
 for line in open(tobetranslatedfile,"r").readlines():
 tobetranslatedparts=line.strip().split()
 results.append(dictionary[tobetranslatedparts[2]])
 for residue in results:
 if residue not in unique:
 unique[residue]=1
 else:
 unique[residue]+=1


You can replace the if/else with the get() metjod of a dictionary:

   unique[residue] = unique.get(residue,0) + 1

get returns the current value and if the value is not there it returns 
the second parameter(zero here)




 for residue, numbers in unique.items():
 print(residue,numbers)
 with open(base+OUTPUTFILEEXT,"w") as f:
 f.write(str(unique))  ### How can I output the
results the same as the print one. Thanks.


create a string before you write it:

mystr = str(residue) + str(numbers)

is the simplest way. However you may prefer to format the string in 
another way first. But thats your choice...



if __name__=="__main__":
 generate_dict(DICTIONARYFILE)

Hi,

I googled for a while, but failed to find the perfect answer,

for a string

['85CUR', '85CUR']



That's not a string, it is a list.



how can I unique it as:

['85CUR']


Your question is unclear. If you have this:

['85CUR', '99bcd', '85CUR', '85CUR']

what do you expect to get?


# keep only the very first item
['85CUR']
# keep the first copy of each string, in order
['85CUR', '99bcd']
# keep the last copy of each string, in order
['99bcd', '85CUR']
# ignore duplicates only when next to each other
['85CUR', '99bcd', '85CUR']


Does the order of the result matter?

If order matters, and you want to keep the first copy of each string:

unique = []
for item in items:
if item not in unique:
unique.append(item)


If order doesn't matter, then use this:

unique = list(set(items))

You should be able to do this yourself, with the help of the following link:

http://docs.python.org/library/stdtypes.html#set

Is this a homework question?
