How to count line number of incorrect words in a set using a dictionary

[lightning18]

still get the same error

import sys
import string

text = []
infile = open(sys.argv[1], 'r').read()
for punct in string.punctuation:
    infile = infile.replace(punct, "")
    text = infile.split("\n")
    
dict = open(sys.argv[2], 'r').read()
dictset = []
dictset = dict.split()
    
words = []
words = list(set(text) - set(dictset))
words = [text.lower() for text in words]
words.sort()


def findline(text, word):
    ans = []
    reps = text.count(word)
    n = 0
    for i in range(reps):
        ans.append(text[n:].index(word)+n)
        n = text[n:].index(word)+1
    return ans
for w in words:
    print(w,findline(text, w)

I wasn't trying to solve your syntax error. You need to post more details or do your own debugging. There's normally a clue about where the syntax error is with whatever compiler your using.

Although looking through your line 29 is wrong. print w,etc instead of print(w,etc

Incidentally lines 4,7 and 14 are not needed.

As I said in my previous message replace line 29 with this:

print w,findline(text, w)

Your current line 29 doesn't have matching brackets.

it still gives me a synatx error for

 print w,findline(text, w)

I'm afraid I have no idea why. You're going to have to debug it. This is a normal part of coding. Try commenting out bits of the code and rerunning, until you narrow it down to where it is.

Good luck!
