This error is just telling you that the dict d is empty (i.e. no matches were found). So you need to sanity check this. Replace: max_tuple = max(d.items(), key=lambda k: k[1]) max_value = max_tuple[1] …

If you just want the highest value from a dict and you don't care about what key it's associated with, you can just do: max_value = max(d.values()) For the key of the max value: max_key = max(d, key= …

If you look at the databases, you'll see that Harry (which your code produces for sequence 18) is almost an exact match with one exception. Sequence 18 contains TCTG 41 times, rather than the 40 times …
