Question

Hello I have a file containing a pin, account name, and balance all on one line. I need to append the pin to the list and the name plus balance to the dictionary. Here is my code for the function below.

def atm(inf):
infile = open(inf,"r")
bigbank={}
pin=[]
for line in infile:
if line[0:3] in infile:
pin.append(line[0:3])
#bigbank.update(line[4:])#appendDict?????
else: #line(4,len(line)) in infile:
name,score = line.split(":")
bigbank[name] = int(score)
return (pin,bigbank)
print(pin,bigbank)

inf = input('Insert?')
#call the function
pin1, bigbank1 = atm(inf)

Answer 1

code:

''' atm.txt

8073 Nicholas Nickleby 23750.0

2245 Paul Newman 1235456.5

'''

def atm(inf):

infile = open(inf,"r")

bigbank={}

pin=[]

for line in infile:

#split the line by ":" 0 index will contain pin

#first and second index will contain name and balances

line = line.split(' ')

if len(line) >3 :

pin.append(line[0].strip())

#concatenate first and last names to form full name

name = line[1]+' '+line[2]

bigbank[name.strip()] = float(line[3])

#close the file before you return

infile.close()

return (pin,bigbank)

inf = input('Insert?')

#call the function

pin1, bigbank1 = atm(inf)

print(pin1,bigbank1)
