Please specify your Python version and os version in any new thread.It sometimes makes a big difference in the solution. Your primary problem is that you don't close the files. But you should start by writing a specification. I'm not sure what you mean by all stings. I'd assume you mean all lines. But that's not what the code does. The code is looking at every word of every line. Perhaps you mean the first word of the input file. You say the output is clear, by which I'm guessing you mean the output file is empty. Since there could be many causes for that, I'd suggest adding appropriate print statements to see what happened. I'd also suggest removing the call to readlines. It doesn't change the result, and causes several problems. One is that input _ file is not a File, but a list. It becomes impossible to close it, and if the file is large it wastes memory. -- DaveA _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - [email protected] To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
