Replace_character
I show here how to remove a certain character from set of lines in a text file using Python¶
In [1]:
import numpy as np
Here I am reading each line and removing the character '%'¶
In [ ]:
F =open(path+'textfile1.txt','r')
F2 = open(path+'textfile2.txt','w')
for line in F:
line = line.split('%')[0]
F2.write(line+'\n')
F2.close()
Here I am removing the same character and replacing a comma in a decimal by a point¶
In [ ]:
F =open(path+'textfile1.txt','r')
F2 = open(path+'textfile2.txt','w')
for line in F:
l = []
line = line.split('%')[0]
for n in range(len(line.split())):
l.append(line.split()[n].replace(',','.'))
l = ' '.join(l)
F2.write(l+'\n') #to convert list to str (https://www.decalage.info/en/python/print_list)
F2.close()
