Thanks Bob,
I changed the wordlist.txt to
next
block
is
meat
<snip>
and the program;
#!/usr/bin/python
password = 'loser'
wordlist = '/home/david/Challenge-You/wordlist.txt'
try:
words = open(wordlist, 'r').readlines()
except IOError, e:
print "Sorry no words"
for word in words:
word = word.replace("\n","")
if password in word:
print "The password is: ", word
else:
pass
Good work!
I could not figure out how to split the file into words.
look up the string method split.
Also take a look at the syntax of the for statement and notice it has an
else clause.
