Hi,
ive been trying to update a dictionary containing a molecular formula, but seem
to be getting this error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "DS1excessH2O.py", line 242, in ?
updateDS1v(FCas, C, XDS)
NameError: name 'C' is not defined
dictionary is:
DS1v = {'C': 6, 'H': 10, 'O': 5}
#'Fxas' in each case will be integers but 'atoms' should be a float
def updateDS1v(Fxas, x, XDS):
while Fxas != 0:
atoms = DS1v.get('x') + Fxas*XDS
DS1v[x] = atoms
updateDS1v(FCas, C, XDS)
updateDS1v(FHas, H, XDS)
updateDS1v(FOas, O, XDS)
updateDS1v(FNas, N, XDS)
updateDS1v(FSas, S, XDS)
updateDS1v(FClas, Cl, XDS)
updateDS1v(FBras, Br, XDS)
updateDS1v(FZnas, Zn, XDS)
print DS1v
I know there is probably a simple solution but im quite new to python and am
lost?
