comment_start = line.find(comments) if comment_start > 0: line = line[:comments_start].strip() else: line = line.strip() Just as a matter of interest, why this, rather than line.index()? Are exceptions slower than an if test? Also, I don't see any io tests in: numpy/lib/tests Is that where they should be? It seems like a good idea to have a few... If I did find the time to write some tests -- how does one go about it for this sort of thing? Do I put a couple sample input files in SVN? Or does the test code write out the sample files, then read them in to test? Or maybe do it all in memory with sStringIO or something. Are there any examples of tests of file reading code that I could borrow from? thanks, -Chris -- Christopher Barker, Ph.D. Oceanographer Emergency Response Division NOAA/NOS/OR&R (206) 526-6959 voice 7600 Sand Point Way NE (206) 526-6329 fax Seattle, WA 98115 (206) 526-6317 main reception [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Numpy-discussion mailing list Numpy-discussion@scipy.org http://projects.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
