[LUNA] Python question

[Paul F. Pearson]

Ive not done Python, but it appears that you're trying to declare golf to be a list.

According to [1], lists are declared with square brackets ('[]'). So, to get correct syntax, I think it would be:

--- begin code 

global golf[]
name = ""
while name != 1:
   name = input("Golfer's name? ")
   score = input("Golfer's score? ")
   golf[name]=score

file = open("","w")

for key in golf:
   file.write(key, gofl[key])

file.close()

--- end code
