CS50 dna.py compare STR counts with database

So I got this far:

  1. names[] - is a dict with CSV data
  2. str[] - column names from CSV - to access STR names
  3. sequence[] - dna sequence from TXT
  4. checked_seq[] - list with STR counts from sequence

I now got stuck on the final task:

  • Need to compare the STR counts against each person`s data from CSV
  • Output the match

Here`s my code:

    # Read database file into a variable
    names = []
    # Read data from the file
    with open(sys.argv[1], "r") as file:
        # Loop through the names
        reader = csv.DictReader(file)
        for name in reader:
            names.append(name)

    # Read STRs
    with open(sys.argv[1], "r", newline='') as file:
        readstr = csv.reader(file)
        rows = list(readstr)
        str = rows[0]


    # Read DNA sequence file into a variable
    sequence = []
    with open(sys.argv[2], "r") as file:
        sequence = file.read()

    # TODO: Find longest match of each STR in DNA sequence
    checked_seq = []
    for i in range(len(str)):
        subsequence = str[i]
        reps = longest_match(sequence, subsequence)
        checked_seq.append(reps)

I was printing every data structure created along the lines and it looks like the STR count works.

Now here was my train of thought for the last task:

    for i in range(1, len(str) - 1):
        match = 0
        while True:
            if checked_seq[i] == names[i - 1][str[i]]:
                match += 1
            else:
                break
        if match == len(str) - 1:
            print(names[i - 1][str[0]])
        else:
            print("No match")

I was going to run a loop through every person's data and compare STR counts to STR counts from the checked TXT file. Every time there's a match I have to check the next STR for the same person and break out if it`s a no match or increment match count by one if STRs matched again.

I will check match count against number of STRs and if these values are the same then print out that person`s name.

Can someone please give me a clue where I went wrong?

Where and how is this Laravel kernel constructor called? [closed]

Where and how is this Laravel kernel constructor called? public fucntion __construct(Application $app, $Router $roouter) { } I have read the documentation and some online tutorial but I can find any clear explanation. I am learning Laravel and I am wondering where does this kernel constructor receives its arguments from. "POSTMOTERM" CLARIFICATION: Here is more clarity.I have checked the boostrap/app.php and it is only used for boostrapping the interfaces into the container class. What is not clear to me is where and how the Kernel class is instatiated and the arguments passed to the object calling the constructor.Something similar to; obj = new kernel(arg1,arg2) or, is the framework using some magic functions somewhere? Special gratitude to those who burn their eyeballs and brain cells on this trivia before it goes into a full blown menopause alias "MARKED AS DUPLICATE".
