I think you're passing the wrong arguments to downloadFile(). You're
calling downloadFile(f, g), but f and g are file objects. Don't you want
to pass urls and clientname instead?
Even if the correct arguments are passed to downloadFile, I think you're
using them incorrectly. You don't even use the urls argument, and
clientname is supposed to be a list, so why aren't you looping through
it?
You aren't using string interpolation correctly on the call to urlretrieve.
Assuming your intent was to build a string and pass it as the second
argument, you have the close-parenthesis in the wrong place. The call
should look like this:
urllib.urlretrieve(f, "%g.csv" % clientname)
"%g" returns a floating-point value. Did you mean "%s" instead?)
