Why is there an AttributeError, line 12, below : 'tuple' object has no
attribute 'sort'?
Because a tuple has no attribute sort.
A tuple is immutable - you can't change it. Therefore,
you can't sort it.
You can however use the sorted() function on it to
return a list containing the sorted contents of
your tuple.
count = dict()
fname = raw_input("Enter file name: ")#
handle = open (fname, 'r')#
for line in handle:
if line.startswith("From "):
address = line.split()[5]
line = line.rstrip()
count[address] = count.get(address, 0) + 1
for key,val in count.items():
ncount = (key,val)
ncount.sort(reverse=True)
use
ncount = sorted(ncount, reverse=True)
print key,val
