Hi,
I am importing data produced from an external code. The data is
organized into columns. I would like to be able to assign each column
to a variable or array. How would you recommend doing this? I have
been looking into the pickle function, as well as "f.readline" and
"for line in f:" and I got all of those ideas from the Python
Tutorial. I am a little new to python.
Thank you,
Tristan Clark
Take a look at csv module (for Py2, see drop down version choice for Py3):
http://docs.python.org/2/library/csv.html
Is the data going to be ASCII? There are some issues in regard to csv /
unicode
handling. -m
