Off the top of my head, I'd try something like:
class TwoLiner:
def __init__(self, f):
self.f = f
def __iter__(self):
return self
def next(self):
line1 = self.f.next()
line2 = self.f.next()
return (line1, line2)
for n, (line1, line2) in enumerate(TwoLiner(open("file")):
print n, line1
print line2
Note that this has and end-of-file problem. When your file contains an odd
number of lines, at the end of the file TwoLiner.next will raise
StopIteration during the second self.f.next() call and you'll lose the last
line of the file. You can work around it with something like this:
def next(self):
line1 = self.f.next()
try:
line2 = self.f.next()
except StopIteration:
line2 = None
return (line1, line2)
then when using it you have to test line2 for None:
for n, (line1, line2) in enumerate(TwoLiner(open("file")):
print n, line1
if line2 is not None:
print line2
Skip
