Problem : Sequence Contains No Elements

Dec 1 2012 4:26 PM
Hello. 

So, Im having trouble resolving a problem with my current program.

The basics of it is, that it reads a data file, takes the data from the file, adds each 'individual' variable values together, and outputs the average of them on the cmd prompt box.Ignoring the "D" tag which is the date that will only be used for another part of the program( to be added when I find a fix for this)

The problem appears at this line of code, as the title says 'Sequence contains no elements'. 
Console.WriteLine("{0} {1}", pair.Key, pair.Value.Average());

Parse/flush are not used at the moment as they have no effect on the program( for later use)

Thank you for responses in advance.
