name = raw_input('Enter file:')

handle = open(name, 'r')

text = handle.read()

words = text.split()

counts = dict()

for word in words:

counts[word] = counts.get(word,0) + 1

bigcount = None

bigword = None

for word,count in counts.items():

if bigcount is None or count > bigcount:

bigword = word

bigcount = count

print bigword, bigcount

This program opens a text file and then counts the words, it then prints the count.

This is a difficult program to understand if you do not know programming.

So in a  further post we'll break it down
