Hi tutors
If I need to clean a textfile (perhaps after web scraping), I have used this
method - without problems - but I'm sure there must be smarter and better
ways.
I'm especially interested to know how I do more than just one search-replace
without having to repeat the whole step below.
I'm using Python 2.6.6 on a windows pc.
fin = open("dirtyfile.txt")
fout = open("cleanfile.txt", "w")
for line in fin:
fout.write(line.replace('## ', '#'))
fin.close()
fout.close()
Thanks,
Tommy
