Okay,
It is now working as follows:
memFile = open('/proc/meminfo')
for line in memFile.readlines():
if line.startswith("MemTotal"):
memStr = line.split()
memTotal = memStr[1]
memFile.close()
print "Memory: " + memTotal + "kB"
I'm learning the whole try, finally exception stuff so will add that
in as well. Now, I'm trying to figure out the CPU speed. In shell,
I'd do:
grep "^cpu MHz" /proc/cpuinfo | awk '{print $4}' | head -1
The "head -1" is added because if the server has 2 or more processors,
2 or more lines will result, and I only need data from the first
line. So, now I'm looking for the equivalent to "head (or tail" in
Python. Is this a case where I'll need to break down and use the re
module? No need to give me the answer, a hint in the right direction
would be great though.
Thanks again,
Tom
