I've CCd the list. Please use reply all when responding to the list.
Also please use plain text as HTML/RTF doesn't work on all
systems and code in particular often gets mangled.

Hello again,

here is the final code… I think :) please see below. Is this is the easiest way to go about it? I appreciate your assistance!

defmain():
     words = {}
     count =0

Do you need count? What is its purpose?
     withopen('words.txt')asdata:
         forlineindata:
             text = line.split()
             forwordintext:
                 ifwordnot inwords:
                     words[word] =1
                 else:
                     words[word] +=1

Look into the setdefault() method of dictionaries.
It can replace the if/else above.

             count +=1
     print(words)

Aside from the two comments above, good job!
