Others have pointed out what's wrong with this, but here's a general tip: Don't repeat complicated subexpressions such as m.group(1). Doing so makes the code hard to read and therefore hard to spot errors in (and less efficient as well, although that's a secondary consideration). Instead, pull them out and give them meaningful names. Doing so with the above code gives: name = m.group(1) value = m.group(2) if name not in od.keys(): od[name] = int(value) else: od[name] += int(od.get(name, 0)) Now it's a lot eaier to see that you haven't used the value anywhere in the second case, which should alert you that something isn't right. -- Greg -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
