but it is priniting second file after first, whereas i want to join them columwise like:--- FileA FileB FileC 12 14 12 14 15 + 16 = 15 16 18 17 18 17 20 19 20 19
I'm not sure what the plus sign in the second line signifies but otherwise it looks like you will need to process each file line by line and concatenate each string.
for line1 in fileA: line2 = fileB.readline() fileC.write("%s\t%s" % line1,line2) You might need to strip the lines before writing them... -- Alan Gauld Author of the Learn to Program web site http://www.alan-g.me.uk/ _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
