<div>This was another execise in my book. Following is my code for a program that uses dictionaries to find and edit pairs of fathers and sons. The program works right up to the final step which is to find out if any given father is actually a grandfather to someone else in the dictionary. I set up multiple generations in the dictionary so there would be available matches.</div>

<div># father son "who's your daddy" program<br>#create a dictionary of father son pairs. Include multiple generations.</div>
<div>pairs = {"Joel" : "Al",<br> "Bill" : "Joel",<br> "Joseph" : "Bill",<br> "Palmer" : "Bob",<br> "Bob" : "Will",<br>
