Hi, I am a beginner in Python. In fact, beginner to coding/ scripting.
Here is a scenario, I need to code. Need your help on this: A script that 1. Reads from a file (may be a local file say test.txt) 2. And, if the line begins with a "#", should print the line one time 3. if the line has "##", should print the line 2 times, 4. And, if there are "###" in the beginning of the line, should print the same line 3times, 5. And, if the line contains "####" or more "#"'s, then print as "an invalid line" 6. if the line contains no "#" then print "looks like a code line" For this as far the info I could understand, - We need to use open('TextFile.txt') function - Need to start a While loop/ For in loop - By some means individually read every single line and check for the above conditions In this regard, I wish you could guide on what kind of syntax/ structure/ commands to use. Thanks Abhi
