I don't know why this gives a key error on 'E' (which basically means
that there is no key 'E') since the code above should guarantee that
it exists. Odd. I'm also not sure why the error occurs after it prints
summary. Are you sure the output is in the sequence you showed in your
message?
One simple explanation: it continued on to the next file, which has
neither "E" nor "B" in it.
But even then this bit of code should ensure that a list of zeros exists:
def processfile(infilename):
results={}
base, ext =os.path.splitext(infilename)
if ext == INFILEEXT:
text = fetchonefiledata(infilename)
numcolumns=len(text[0])
for ch in TOKENS:
results[ch] = [0]*numcolumns
Unless of course the second file doesn't have the right file extension!
In that case it would jump to process the summary with no results data.
for k,v in results.items():
print(results)
summary=[]
for a,b in zip(results['E'],results['B']):
summary.append(a+b)
Yep, that would do it!
Lina, it looks like you need to either move the initialisation of
results above the extension check, or else move the summary check inside
the if block.
