Outputting Sorted Text files Help - charlieroberrts - Jul-05-2020
Hello,
I am currently making a music quiz game and I need to store the top 5 high scores the players of the game achieve.
Currently my code is this...
[python]
d = {} # dictionary to hold the data
with open('Rock60sHIGHSCORE.txt', 'r') as f: # open and
for line in f.readlines(): # read file lines
# assign the name as key to the score's value
d[line.split("'")[0].strip()] = int(line.split(':')[1].strip())
# sort the list and slice the top 5
scoresh = (sorted(d.items(), key=lambda x: x[1])[::-1])[:5]
print(scoresh)
[pyhton]
This is perfectly functional for what I need. However the list it prints out is this..
[('Tom', 51), ('Alex', 9), ('Caitlin', 8), ('Adam', 4), ('Amy', 3)]
Does anyone know how to get rid of the brackets and commas and hopefully put a 'score:' in between them?
I want it to look something like this..
Tom's score: 51
Alex's score: 9
Caitlin's score: 8
Adam's score: 4
Amy's score: 3
Thanks

Please use proper tags when posting. Make code much easier to read.
mylist = [('Tom', 51), ('Alex', 9), ('Caitlin', 8), ('Adam', 4), ('Amy', 3)]
for data in mylist:
print(f'{data[0]}: {data[1]}')Output:Tom: 51
Alex: 9
Caitlin: 8
Adam: 4
Amy: 3
