Hello, I am trying to use the following line of code :
fileContent=loadtxt(filePath,dtype=str) in order to load a text file located at path= filePath in to a numpy array called fileContent. I´ve simplifed my file for the purpose of this question but the file looks something like this: file Content : C:\Users\Documents\Project\mytextfile1.txt C:\Users\Documents\Project\mytextfile2.txt C:\Users\Documents\Project\mytextfile3.txt I try to print my fileContent array after I read it and it looks like this : ["b'C:\\\\Users\\\\Documents\\\\Project\\\\mytextfile1.txt'" "b'C:\\\\Users\\\\Documents\\\\Project\\\\mytextfile2.txt'" "b'C:\\\\Users\\\\Documents\\\\Project\\\\mytextfile3.txt'"] Why is this happening and how can I prevent it ? Also if I have a line that starts like this in my file, python will crash on me. how can i fix this ? !--Timestep ( line in file starting with !-- ) I guess it has to have something to do with datatype. if I donot define the datatype it will be float by default which will give me an error an if I define the datatype as string as I did above, then I get to the problems that I mentioned above. I´d appreciate any help on how to fix this. Thanks
