This fails with the following error;
TypeError: 'int' object is not iterable
I know that others have already solved the problem, but here is
something which might help you solve similar problems in the future.
The way to debug simple things like this is quite simple:
print count[0]
which will show you that count[0] is a list [0], not an int 0, and you
are trying to add [0]+1 which doesn't work.
Never under-estimate the usefulness of a few print calls when debugging.
About time we threw in the use of the interactive interpreter for trying
code snippets as well, just for good measure :)
