In-place edits of a file are dangerous, especially as a beginner. This is because if your program makes a mistake before the end, you have very limited ways to recover. What's usually better practice is to write outputs to a separate file, with a similar-but-different name. That way, once your program has completed, you can inspect the contents of the new file, and then if things look ok, finally you can copy the new file over the old file. Can you do this instead? _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
