Subject: Re: [Tutor] Reading characters from file in binary mode
Hmm, my C++ is remarkably rusty but I think you want something like this:
inp = open("CMT_MCAID", "rb")
out = open("mcaid.txt", "w")
for i in range(1000):
ch = inp.read(1)
if not ch: break # EOF
k = ord(ch) # convert to integer
kl = k % 16
kh = k / 16
out.write('%x %x ' % (kh, kl))
out.close()
*******
Thank you very much. It looks exactly what I wished to know.
But now, I realize that I don't know how to invoke Python to compile and execute the
program file.
I will be making rapid changes to the file, and recompiling over and over again as
I change the program during my experimentation.
I guess that in the open command, the rb stands for read and something else.
what is that something else?
