Hi All,
I'm using python 3.2 on a windows xp.
I wrote the below script and ran it with the hope of returning a list of
proctors (list_proc), but when it runs it doesn't call the function
convert_proctors() as intended. On the other hand, when i import the module
from the IDLE prompt and call the convert_proctors() function, the function
returns the desired list.
Why is this so?
Thanks
1. import csv
2.
3. proctor_file=r'c:\Python32\Khalid Stuff\Testing_Scheduler\p
roctors.csv'
4.
5.
6. def convert_proctors():
7. proctor_csv_reader = csv.reader(open(proctor_file))
8. proctor_list=list(proctor_csv_reader)
9. list_proc=[]
10. for row in range(len(proctor_list)):
11. list_proc.append(proctor_list[row][0])
12. return (list_proc)
13.
14.
15. convert_proctors()

Your main query has already been answered, but I'd like to point out
that your function could be written something like this.
def convert_proctors():
list_proc = []
for row in csv.reader(open(proctor_file)):
list_proc.append(row[0])
return list_proc

Cheers.
