Dear Group,
I am trying to read a list of files as
list_of_files = glob.glob('C:\Python27\*.*')
Now I am trying to read each one of them,
convert into list of words, and append to a list
as.
list1=[]
for file in list_of_files:
print file
fread1=open(file,"r").read()
fword=fread1.split()
list1.append(fword)
Here the list is a list of lists, but I want only one list not
list of lists.
I was thinking of stripping it as, str(list1).strip('[]')
but in that case it would be converted to string.
Is there a way to do it. I am using Python27 on Windows7 Professional.
Apology for an indentation error.
If anybody may please suggest.
You're first problem is the name of your variable. fword implies it's a
string, but it's really a list. So when you do:
list1.append(fword)
you're appending a list to a list, which gives you nested lists. Sounds
like you want
list1.extend(fword)
