The user doesn't interact with loops. its a better practice to use a variable then to use a while true, and break on the exception that you catch... thats not a the biggest problem you had though. far from it. The biggest problem is you reset the cart in every pass of your function calls. | |

| Mar 31 at 18:22 | comment | added | UpAndAdam | dont just take in code you dont understand the thing is you have no need to have duplicates in the first place and that code isnt particularly good | |
| Mar 30 at 21:14 | comment | added | Elvino Michel | Regarding the dictionary comprehension: yes, was trying to find a way to count duplicates element in the list, googled and found this Stackoverflow question. | |
