Hello, here's a strange bug (?) I've came across (using Python 2.2):
# loop_1 for line in file: if some_condition(line): break do_something() # loop_2 for line in file: do_something_else() The problem is, that loop_2 doesn't resume where loop_1 left off, but skips many lines (a block's worth or so) before continuing. Why is this? Is reading from a file non-reentrant? It is always possible to slurp the whole file content into a list, and then iterate through the list, but I want to handle HUGE files too. Thanks, -cpghost. -- Cordula's Web. http://www.cordula.ws/ -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
