I used defaultdic to store some variables but the output is blank

I have the following script which does not return anything, no apparent mistake but my output file is empty.I am just trying to extract some decimal number from a file according to their names which are in another file. from collections import defaultdict import numpy as np

ercc_contigs= {}
for line in open ('Faq_ERCC_contigs_name.txt'):
 gene = line.strip().split()

ercc_rpkm = defaultdict(lambda: np.zeros(1, dtype=float))
output_file = open('out.txt','w')

rpkm_file = open('RSEM_Faq_Q1.genes.results.txt')
rpkm_file.readline()
for line in rpkm_file:
 line = line.strip()
 columns = line.strip().split()
 gene = columns[0].strip()
 rpkm_value = float(columns[6].strip())
 if gene in ercc_contigs:
 ercc_rpkm[gene] += rpkm_value

ercc_fh = open ('out.txt','w')
for gene, rpkm_value in ercc_rpkm.iteritems():
 ercc = '{0}t{1}n'.format(gene, rpkm_value)
 ercc_fh.write (ercc)

If someone could help me spot what's wrong it would be much appreciate cheers

1) You probably planned to use the loop above to populate the ercc_contigs dict, but there's no code for that.

2) Remember that ercc_contigs is empty; therefore the test

3) I think ercc_rpkm = defaultdict(float) should suffice.

4) You can remove all strip() method calls here as line.split() implicitly removes all whitespace.

I am running a python script and it will create a file name like filename0.0.0 and If I run it again then new file will create one more like filename0.0.1......
my code is-

i = 0
for i in range(1000):
 try:
 with open('filename%d.%d.%d.json'%(0,0,i,)): pass
 continue
 except IOError:
 dataFile = file('filename%d.%d.%d.json'%(0,0,i,), 'a+')
 break

But It will take more time after creating many files, So i want to store value of last var "i" in a variable so that when I run my script again then I can use it. for example-
my last created file is filename0.0.27 then it should store 27 in a variable and when i run again then new file should be created 0.0.28 according to last value "27", so that i could save time and it can create file fast..
