Hi. I need some help. I need my python program to get information from the .txt file.(text file). I have managed to get this:

import string
months = []
temperatures = []
fm = open("weather.txt","r")
count = int(fm.readline())
# Number of the moths are read from the .txt file
for indeks in range(count):
    month = fm.readline()
    month = month.strip()
    months += [month]
print(months)
#temperatures are read from the .txt file
for indeks in range(count):
    temperature = fm.readline()
    temperatures_list = temperature.split(" ")
    temperature_i = []
# temperatures are put to list
    for number_s in temperatures_list:
        temperature_i += [int(number_s)]
    temperatures += [temperature_i]
fm.close()
print(temperatures)
print("Data has been received")

#What to do now? :confused:

The text file looks like this:

12
January
February
March
April
May
June
July
August
September
October
November
December

For Example, my program looks and has to look like this:

Data has been received
Please enter a month : January
The most occurring temprature in January is : -10

So my question is how to put this to my code:?

Please enter a month :

You have done a fine job so far test printing your data.

Now let the user input a month with the correct spelling.
Index the month using:
mon_ix = months.index(mon_str)

That index matches the temperature data index, pull out he right list with:
mon_temps = temperatures[mon_ix]

Now create a temporary ft_list of (frequency, temperature) tuples using a loop and
ft_list.append((mon_temps.count(temperature), temperature))

Find the max tuple in the list with max(ft_list)

Extract the frequency and associated temperature from that tuple and display the result.

Again, keep test printing interim results to help you along.
