Hi, i tried to make a code to execute the functions that i described
below. However i got a break outside the loop error
Always post the full error message it usually contains
lots of useful detail.
## Created the lists for brain and plasma before searching for common
bioseq.
while True:
count1 += 1
s1=file1.readline().partition(',')[0]
if s1 and count1 > 1:
This line is not indented so the loop stops on
the previous line.
brain.append(s1)
if not s1:
break
But your 'break' is here so it is outside the loop.
You need to indent the whole section from
if s1 and count1 > 1:
so that it is inside the loop.
while True:
count2 += 1
s2=file2.readline().partition(',')[0]
if s2 and count2 > 1:
plasma.append(s2)
if not s2:
break
And the same problem here.
The indentation defines what is inside the loop.
