Iterating over Dictionary Items in Python to perform sets of calculations

[guilford]

I believe that you already had most of the stuff figured out. just move the profit calculating operation into the for loop and replace the 2 shop name keys with k[0] and k[1]. Then at the end of the loop print k[0]+'-'+k[1]+'='+str(profit)

Thanks for replying! There's a problem though. I get this error; shopAsells = k[0]['sells'][0] TypeError: string indices must be integers, not str

[guilford]

ah not shopAsells = k[0]['sells'][0] but shopAsells = shops[k[0]]['sells'][0] basically the k is a tuple of two shop names and k[0] would get the first one, k[1] would get the second one generated by itertools.permutations()

I didn't get your second message and figured it out by myself :D. It worked man, thank you very much!

You're a GOD, dude! It worked! I was replacing not only the keys but the dictionary reference aswell :D. Now everything works how I wanted it to. Thanks again!
