When you run that code as a script, it does call your convert_proctors() function. But since all you do is create a list, and you never save it to disk, or print it to the screen, or even assign it to a variable, the result is just thrown away. Try changing the last line to: print(convert_proctors()) and you'll see the results you were expecting. -- Jerry _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
