Python 3 - ValueError: not enough values to unpack (expected 3, got 2)

Question

I have a problem with my Python 3 program. I use Mac OS X. This code is running properly.

# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
#! python3
# sendDuesReminders.py - Sends e         


        

Answer 1

You probably want to assign the lastname you are reading out here

lastname = sheet.cell(row=r, column=3).value

to something; currently the program just forgets it

you could do that two lines after, like so

unpaidMembers[name] = lastname, email

your program will still crash at the same place, because .items() still won't give you 3-tuples but rather something that has this structure: (name, (lastname, email))

good news is, python can handle this

for name, (lastname, email) in unpaidMembers.items():

etc.
