I'm sorry, im writing this from my cellphone and there's not a pc around XD.
I didn,t know about the csv module either and had to do over complicated things
to deal with embedded commas, thx for that too :).

readline is the function/method name
readline() executes that function/method and returns a value
try typing in 'type(f.readline)' vs 'type(f.readline())'
you can't .split() a function but you may split its return value
Monika,
Thanks for your help. I got it to work using the following (also had
to spell "delimiter"):
>>> import csv
>>> myfile = open(r'c:\test.txt', 'r')
>>> data = csv.reader(myfile, delimiter=',')
>>> print data
<_csv.reader object at 0x00D41870>
>>> for item in data:
print item
oops it is reader not Reader (all lower case), so this line : data =
csv.Reader(myfile, delimeter = ',')
should be data = csv.reader(myfile, delimeter = ',')

Hi Everyone,
Thanks for the variety of responses in such a short amount of time.
This distribution list is incredible.
Sorry for the delayed reply as I wanted to test what everyone
suggested, so here goes:

Hi Everyone,

In this case, the standard library provides csv for parsing comma
separated files. It's not the same as rolling your own, but it is made
specifically for this use case...

Hi Everyone,
I am trying to read a comma-delimitted list ("aaa","bbb","ccc") from a text
file and assign those values to a list, x, such that:
x = ["aaa", "bbb", "ccc"

Hi Everyone,
I am trying to read a comma-delimitted list ("aaa","bbb","ccc") from a text
file and assign those values to a list, x, such that:
x = ["aaa", "bbb", "ccc"]
The code that I have come up with looks like this:
>>> x = []
>>> f = open(r'c:\test.txt', 'r')
>>> x.extend(f.readlines())
>>
13 matches
