Subject: [Tutor] Reading every 5th line
Hello Everyone,
I am to make a small programme for a friend of mine
where i am to start reading from 14th (string) from a file and then
read every 5th row.
ie.
in 1st read it reads the 14 row in a File, write to an OUTPUT-1 file
Next reads 19th row, write to the OUTPUT-1 file
then 24th row,... so on.
and the second loop does is
reads the 15th line as the first line from same input file and write
to OUTPUT-2 file
next reads 20th line / row, write to the OUTPUT-2 file
I have tried various ways but some how i am ONLY able to do i simple
read from one file and write to another.
There are 3024 rows / lines PER file and there are 24 such file I need
to run the programme on.
I really need this on an urgent basis. can some one please help me in
this.
Thanks in Advance
Nitin

Try using "range(start, end, step)".
If this is for a class exercise, it would be unfair to say more. If it's not
for an assignment, I can show you more.
