You need to store the count before resetting it since you want
to know the largest value of count over the list. Or at least keep a
separate max variable that you update if count max.
Fairly easy:
if Cur_Count Max_Count:
Max_Count = Cur_Count
See? Just two extra lines of code.
Hello,
I thought it'd be cool to write a program for my logic/critical thinking
class, and right now we're evaluating randomness - and the deception of
it. A previous post inspired it - coin flipping.
So, I've written a program that flips a coin 1000 times and records it
all in a dictionary,

Regular expressions are for processing strings, not loops.
From a theoretical point of view, this isn't quite true: regular
expressions can deal with sequences of things. It's true that most
regular expression libraries know how to deal only with characters,
but that's a matter of specializing

I would loop through the list with a for loop, keeping track of the
