Hey guys this is my code on the Q it works nicely but if there is anything that I did wrong or I could have initially avoided pls let me know :)

fname = input("Enter File Name: ")
fhandle = open(fname)
lst = list()
count = dict()
finallist = list()
for line in fhandle:
if line.startswith("From") and not line.startswith("From:"):
line = line.split()
lst.append(line[5])

for hour in lst:
hour = hour.split(":")
finallist.append(hour[0])

for ftime in finallist:
count[ftime] = count.get(ftime, 0) + 1

for x, y in sorted(count.items()):
print(x, y)
