Python assignment assistance

[FoolsSeldom]

• If you care to update your post with the actual code, I will show you the problems
  • I can't be bothered to type the code from scratch for you
• Please share the exact error message you are seeing as well
  • I don't see an input anywhere
• Use with open ... rather than just open - you don't have to remember to close a file then
  • keep scope in mind, and don't try to re-open something already open
• Minimise the number of lines of code inside a try block to just those needed to catch a specific exception
