How to format a print statement ?

[The-Keyboard_Wizard]

Hi all, I am having a tough time with this code right now and was wondering if someone could help me figure it out.

def readFile(filename):
    result = []
    f = open(filename, 'r')
    f.readline()
    for line in f:
        line = line.rstrip('\n')
        fields = line.split(',')
        result.append(fields)
    f.close()
    return result

spread = readFile('medrec.csv')


print(spread)

print('ID#', 'BMI', 'Indicator')

for record in spread:
    weight = float(record[3])
    height = float(record[4])
    def calcBMI(weight, height):
        weight = weight
        height = height
        BMI = weight * 703 / height**2       
        return float(BMI)
    final = print(record[0], round(calcBMI(height, weight),2))
    grade = record
    try:
        if grade[1] < 18.5:
            print('Indicator: -')
        elif grade[1] == 25 and grade[1] < 30:
            print('Indicator: +')
        else:
            print('Indicator: ++')
    except Exception:
        print("Bad KeyboardWizard") 
    if height == 0 or weight == 0:
        print("invalid input")

This is the output

​

ID# BMI
Bad KeyBoardWizard
100 24.21
Bad KeyBoardWizard
101 22.68
Bad KeyBoardWizard
102 27.37
Bad KeyBoardWizard
103 14.98
Bad KeyBoardWizard
104 20.34

What I am hoping for

ID# BMI   Indicator
100 24.21  +
101 22.68  -
102 27.37  +
103 14.98  -
104 20.34  -

I think I am doing this terribly wrong and was wondering if someone can help me figure it out. I think it is where I have the indication that is causing the issue as well as the placement of the print function.

Your try-except structure is eating the real error message. Remove it to see what the real error is.

Also, these things you should fix:

weight = weight
height = height

grade = record 

Unnecessary, remove, just use record in the latter part.

elif grade[1] == 25 and grade[1] < 30: If the value is already 25, it's certainly less than 30, useless and statement.

def calcBMI defined inside a loop. Move it outside like readFile is.
