Results.txt file for Chapter 4 exercises

[Greg Hills]

Hi All,

I've been working on the chapter 4 exercises and I feel as though the
"results.txt" file I created may be improperly formatted. When I run a
program, which in some instances is copied directly from the text
book, I get the following error message:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/Users/ghills/Documents/Personal Stuff/Python Class/Chapter 4
Exercises/exercise p. 123_v2", line 5, in <module>
(name, score) = line.split()
ValueError: need more than 1 value to unpack

Here's how I've set up my results.txt file:

Johnny 8.65
Juan 9.12
Joseph 8.45
Stacey 7.81
Aideen 8.05
Zack 7.21
Aaron 8.31


Would someone be kind enough to post a "results.txt" file that worked
for them, or e-mail it to me directly?

You may have blank lines in your results.txt file.  This one should work.

Thanks a lot Rathan, your file worked. I realize now that I created an .rtf file in TextEdit, then changed the extension myself to .txt. That was the problem.

You guys have seen this, right?

You don't need to writeup these text files from scratch.

I hadn't seen that, probably because I didn't attend the first sessions in person. Thanks Charlie.
