Hello everybody.
Inspired by an example from the book Beginning Python: From Novice to
Professional, I started working on a simple text parser which I can
hopefully then extend into a more comprehensive system. I've got a
little problem, though.
My code:
---- test.py ----
import sys
def preparse(file):
block = []
for line in file:
if line.strip():
block.append(line)
elif block:
yield ''.join(block).strip()
block = []
yield '\n'
def makeList(file):
testOutput = list(preparse(file))
print testOutput
testInput = open("test", "r")
makeList(testInput)
----
---- test ----
test1
test2
test3
test4
test5
test6
test7
test8
test9
test10
----
When I run test.py, it prints this:
michiel-sikmas-computer:~/Desktop msikma$ python test.py
['test1\ntest2', 'test3\ntest4\ntest5\ntest6', 'test7\ntest8',
'test9', '\n']
What happened to "test10"? It seems to be gone unless I add two
linebreaks at the end of the file.
Greets,
Michiel Sikma
