im really confused on this assignment i have all the files but Im not sure how im supposed to store them on my computer to make the program run. the teacher provided us a partially written program for us to complete. I complicated code but it doesnt work it has an error that says unintended does not match. bellow are the assignment instructions and the un finished code as well as the one i wrote.

instructions:  

Some scholars believe you can learn a great deal about an author by studying his or her use of pronouns. we will use a dictionary to count the pronouns in gb.txt. Complete the functions in the program in order to count the number of times each pronoun occurs in gb.txt. Complete the function show_counts() to print the number of times each pronoun occurs. For full credit, print the pronouns in alphabetical order and only print the ones that have a count greater than 0.

unfinished code:

import string #To get punctuation characters

def readfile(fname):

  '''Return contents of a text file as a lower-case string'''

  pass #You can take this out or leave it - it doesn't matter

  #Open the file for reading

  #Read the contents of the file as one long string

  #Close the file

  #Use string.punctuation to remove punctuation

  #Return the string (converting it to lower case)

def count_pronouns(word_list, pronoun_list):

  '''Returns a dictionary with words and their counts

    word_list is a list of words from the text file

    pronoun_list is a list of English pronouns'''

  pass #You can take this out or leave it

  #You are given two lists - you don't have to split the text

  #If you want to see what word_list and...

  #...pronoun_list look like you can print them here

  #Start with an empty dictionary

  #For each word in word_list

  # If the word is a pronoun then

  #  If the word is not in the dictionary

  #   Add it with a count of 1

  #  Otherwise,

  #   Add one to that word's count

  #Return the dictionary

  #Sort the list of keys

  #For each key in the key list

  # Print the key and the count

#Don't change anything below this point
