if "factors.dat":
This is testing if the string is True, which it always is.
I assume you intended something like
if os.path.exists('factors.dat'):
f = open("factors.dat", 'rb')
data = pickle.load(f)
f.close
D = data
else:
f = open("factors.dat", 'wb')
Not sure there is any point in opening a new file at this point. you are
trying to populate data, but if there's no file there is no data so
instead of opening the file you want something like data = {}
