Thanks for that Richard and Steve.
I have another question.
What's the question?
fname = raw_input('Please enter the name of the file: ')
# create file objects
blah = open(fname, 'r')
a = open('rubbish', 'w')
for line in blah:
if line.startswith("0"):
a.write(line)
elif line.endswith("0"):
lists_a = line.strip().split()
print lists_a
The following block is a dead code; the block will never be executed
since if line.startswith("0") is true, the control will fall to the
a.write(line) block and this block is skipped.
elif line.startswith("0"):
lists_b = line.strip().split()
print lists_b
Essentially, I wish to take input from a file and based on the location of
zero, assign lines to lists.
Any suggestions?
Seafoid.
