Try something like this:
```
import sys
def replace(lineno, replacement):
for i, line in enumerate(sys.stdin.readlines()):
if i == lineno:
line = replacement
print(line.strip())
replace(2, "REPLACEMENT")
```

Betreff: how to replace line on particular line in file[no need to write it
back whole file again]
Hi Team,
How to replace particular line text with new text on a file
i have below code but its writing whole code.
def replace_line(file_name, line_num, text):
lines = open(file_name, 'r').readlines()
lines[line_num] = text
out = open(file_name, 'w')
out.writelines(lines) <<<<< *writing back whole file instead of
particular line*
out.close()
replace_line('stats.txt', 0, 'good')
Thanks,
Iranna M
