Greetings! I've just started learning python, so this is probably one of those obvious questions newbies ask.
Is there any way in python to check if a text file is blank? What I've tried to do so far is: f = file("friends.txt", "w") if f.read() is True: """do stuff""" else: """do other stuff""" f.close() What I *mean* to do in the second line is to check if the text file is not-blank. But apparently that's not the way to do it. Could someone set me straight please? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
