Getting a "Cannot be Opened"" error Message
#14
So i finally got the code right and below is my final code :
def team_average(filename):
    numberOfGames = 0
    soxWins = 0
    try:
        file = open(filename, 'r')
    except:
        print (filename, "Cannot be opened")
    else:
        for line in file:
            numberOfGames += 1
            game = line.split()
            scores = game[-2]
            if scores == 'Win':
                soxWins += 1
        average_win = int((soxWins/numberOfGames) * 100)
        return average_win
team_average('xxxxxx')
print(team_average('red_sox.txt'))
I learned a lot just from this thread of course with your tremendous help. Below are some of the acquired knowledge:
  • Troubleshoot the code using the print statement
  • avoid the use of the exception any how and everywhere, it can hide errors.
  • indentation issue
  • Usage of the for loop
  • Etc...

Thanks a  lot gentlemen
