Hi,
As a test I am trying to write a function that returns the sum of values
attached to one key in a dictionary. I am wondering why the code that I
wrote is returning:
"maximum recursion depth exceeded "
Here is the code:
animals = { 'a': ['aardvark'], 'b': ['baboon'], 'c': ['coati']}
x = animals['a']
def howMany(aDict):
count = 0
for value in howMany(aDict):
count += 1
return count
howMany(x)
Just wondering why I would be getting that error.
Thanks
