Example of the error (I'm sure there are other errors in my code) https://imgur.com/a/TXN9H

I do not attempt to give it an empty string, as far as I know. I guess I'll just work on it more...

I get KeyError: '' which supposedly means that the thing wasn't found in the dictionary. I'm accessing it using MORSE_CODE[iterable_that_equals_a_morse_code_string] and that is giving me the error.

there's a screenshot. I have no idea where the zero is coming from. I can provide more screenshots/video if needed.

I was going to make such an amazing oneliner of builtins and functions to take the sum of a list of the appropriately generated odds for the given N... then I realised I could do it so much more easily :(

I believe I have working code but am having trouble accessing the morse code dictionary, and the errors are not enough to tell me what's going on. What should I do? (I'm in Python)

I understand the need for handling a zero... but what on earth is with the weird handling of 1 or 2 or 44? That's ridiculous. My Python script works otherwise.
