Thank you all.
@Dave - Thank you for the tip. No this is not a class exercise, that
is assured.
Will let know how much progress i made.
Truly, I am still foggy, as to how to include it in code.
Thanks
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.
Dave
This may help you get started.
FileNames = ["FileName01", "FileName02", ..., "FileName24"]
for File in FileNames:
List = open(File, 'r').readlines()
for Start in [[14, "%s-1" % File], [15,"%s-2" % File]]:
OutList = []
for Line in range(Start[0]-1, 3024, 5):
OutList.append(List[Line])
open(("%s.txt" % Start[1]), 'w').writelines(OutList)
P.S. My code writing style isn't very conventional.
