thanks that was creative and justified. BUT it didnt work.
the total is still 0.

 here is what i did.

<div tal:define="unit_cost python:penalty[0].unit_cost; global sum python:0"
         tal:condition="not:penaltylen" tal:content="unit_cost" >
         <span tal:define="global sum python:sum+unit_cost"></span>
  </div>
 <tr><td <b>Total
<td ><b tal:replace="sum"></b></td></tr>

please tip me where I'm going wrong
