Suppose I need to write a program which needs to parse lots of binary files. This requires multiple reads of small amounts of data. Obviously if I need to do this very often, I need to do some kind of buffering to reduce IO.
My question is this - does Python have its own buffering while doing file.read()? In that case, I can stop worrying about writing my own buffering logic and just read like I desire. - Sandip -- Sandip Bhattacharya _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
