I'm getting unexpected behaviour from this module. My script is meant to count the number of occurences of a term in one or more files.
--- import sys, string, fileinput searchterm, sys.argv[1:] = sys.argv[1], sys.argv[2:] for line in fileinput.input(): num_matches = string.count(line, searchterm) if num_matches: print "found '%s' %i times in %s on line %i." % (searchterm, num_matches, fileinput.filename(), fileinput.filelineno()) --- When I run at the command line, this error message appears: $ python ./Python/fileinput.py for ./Python/*.py Traceback (most recent call last): File "./Python/fileinput.py", line 1, in ? import sys, string, fileinput File "./Python/fileinput.py", line 6, in ? for line in fileinput.input(): AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'input' --- I'm stumped. Any ideas? Kevin _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
