No, I mean add a dictionary lookup, meaning instead of vat_rate, use a
value that you look up in the dictionary, by using the syntax for looking
up values in dictionaries. What you wrote above would result in a syntax
error.

Hope this isn't considered doing your homework for you, but tell you how to
make a dictionary and look up a value from it.

#making the dictionary:
primeNumberIndexes = {179:41, 181:42, 191:43, 193:44}
#looking up a value in it:
IndexOf179 = primeNumberIndexes[179]
#IndexOf179 is now 41

Of course you can put a variable (actually a "name" in python terminology,
I think) in the brackets instead of a direct value, which you'll want to do.
