Hello All, I have a problem with the program that should generate x number of txt files (x is the number of records in the file datafile.txt).
Once I execute the program (see below) only one file (instead of x files) is created. The file created is based on the last record in datafile.txt. The program is as follows: ==================================== #! python HEADER = "This page displays longitude-latitude information" SUBHEADER = "City" for line in open("datafile.txt"): town, latlong = line.split('\t') f = open(town + ".txt", "w+") f.write(HEADER + "\n") f.write(SUBHEADER + ": " + town + "\n") f.write("LAT/LONG" + ": " + latlong + "\n") f.close() # end ==================================== The datafile.txt is as follows (tab separated columns): ==================================== NYC 1111-2222 Lima 3333-4444 Rome 5555-6666 ==================================== Once executed, the program will create a single file (named Rome.txt) and it would not create files NYC.txt and Lima.txt as I would expect it to do. I'd appreciate if you can pinpoint my error. Best, Vasa -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
