I think your file kaka.txt lacks a CR-LF i.e. '\n' i.e. "Enter" after
the last line.
To get the desired output format you also need to drop the CR-LF:s after
each line to have the required values printed on the same line. Here's
my version of your code with a couple remarks added:
#---------------------------------------------------------
f = open('kaka.txt','r')
# The Windows root directory C:\ is a special directory
# designed to be used by Windows itself. To put it
# politely: it's unwise to do program development in
# that directory
array = f.readlines()
f.close()
# This drops the '\n' from each line:
array = [x[:-1] for x in array]
#print array
f = open('kakaDump.txt','w')
lineSize = 4
skip = 4
condition = 1
startIndex = 0
for letter in array:
line = []
startIndex = array.index(letter)
for indexNum in range(startIndex, startIndex + (skip - 1), 1):
if indexNum > (len(array) - 1):
break
else:
line.append(array[indexNum])
# This adds a space between each item in a row
# and after the last item, but it's "only" a space:
line.append(' ')
for indexNum in range(startIndex + skip, (startIndex +
lineSize) + 1, 1):
if indexNum > (len(array) - 1):
break
else:
line.append(array[indexNum])
# This completes the line:
line.append('\n')
f.writelines(line)
f.close()
#---------------------------------------------------------
I also have my own completely different version which to me looks
cleaner than yours but as they say: "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder"
#---------------------------------------------------------
lineSize = 4
lsm1 = lineSize - 1
f = open('kaka.txt','r')
inData = f.read()
f.close()
inLst = inData.split()
inCount = len(inLst)
inLst += [' ']*lineSize
print inLst
f = open('kakaDump.txt','w')
for ind,elem in enumerate(inLst):
if ind == inCount: break
for i in range(lsm1): f.write('%s ' % inLst[ind + i])
f.write('%s\n' % inLst[ind + lineSize])
f.close()
#---------------------------------------------------------
