If any of the values are None, nothing can work. The OP justifiably

values will be integers. If

hope that helps to clarify both point of views.

Well if you're going to be clever enough

I wasn't sure about the update method either, since AFAICT (not far)
the values would in fact update, not append as I needed them to. But
the iteritems and get combo definitely worked for me.
Thank you for the suggested link. I'm familiar with that page, but my
skill level isn't so far along yet

The truly terrible thing is when you know that's the case even as
you're saying it. Thanks for the help, all!

An alternative:
for k in bar:
foo[k] += bar[k]
The OP asserts that foo keys are a superset of bar keys. If that
assertion is not true (i.e. there are keys in bar that are not in foo,
y
for k in foo:
foo[k] += bar.get(k, 0)

Hi all,
I am not altogether experienced in Python, but I haven't been able to
find a good example of the syntax that I'm looking for in any tutorial
that I've seen. Hope somebody can point me in the right direction.
This should be pretty simple: I have two dictionaries, foo and bar.
