Hi I am looping through a directory and appending all the files in one huge file, the codes below should give the same end results but are not, I don't understand why the first code is not doing it.
thanks combined = open(outputFile, 'wb') for name in flist: if os.path.isdir(file): continue infile = open(os.path.join(file), 'rb') # CODE 1 this does not work tx = infile.read(1000) if tx == "": break combined.write(tx) infile.close() # CODE 2 but this works fine for line in infile: combined.write(line) infile.close() combined.close() -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
