This line ^^^ is indented four spaces too much - you are returning after the first time through the loop. Indent it the same as the for statement and it will work correctly.this is what i get after running this on IDLE:
import sys
data_file = open('C:/Documents and Settings/nyer/Desktop/nyer.txt', 'r') data = data_file.readlines()
def process(list_of_lines): data_points = [] for line in list_of_lines: try: tempLine = int(line) except TypeError: print "Non numeric character in line", line continue #Breaks, and starts with next line
data_points.append(tempLine) return data_points
Kent
print process(data)
================= [1000]
============== but this is what i have written on the text file:
1000 890 900
