[Tutor] Problem with nested for-in

[emmanuel.delaborde]

Hello,

I have the following snippet :

lines = csv.reader(open("CATEGORY.csv","r"))
lines2 = csv.reader(open("CATEGORYLIST.csv","r"))

old_cats = []
for line in lines:
     stories = []
     for line2 in lines2:
         if line2[1] == line[0]:
             stories.append(line2[0])
     old_cats.append((line[0],line[2], stories))


what happens is that

for the first elt of lines, the nested for in runs fine
but then never seem to run again while the top level loop iterates  
through the rest of lines

consequently stories accumulate nothing...

Can someone explain please ?

Thanks

E
