读取用户在python中指定的开始位置和结束位置之间的文本文件

Question

I have a huge text file from which i want to selectively read a few lines. Using tell() i know the positions i want to read between.

Is there a way i can read all the text in the file between the two positions? like file.read(beginPos, endPos)

or maybe, read all text between line number containing beginPos and line number containing endPos?

Answer 1

If you now the start point (with tell() ) and the end point, you could simply do a file.read(end-start) , it will read the end-start bytes. If you're not at the correct offset on begining, use the seek() method ( file.seek(start) ) first.

Answer 2

您将要打开文件，然后打开fileobj.seek(beginPos) ，然后fileobj.read(endPos-beginPos)

Answer 3

Have you looked at using memory mapping? (http://docs.python.org/library/mmap.html)

Once you have a memory map of the file, you can slice it like you would a string (or list) without having to read the entire file into memory.

It might be unnecessary complexity if you're only going to read a single section of the file once, but it you're going to do a lot of IO, it can make it much easier to manage.

from the python docs:

import mmap

# write a simple example file
with open("hello.txt", "wb") as f:
    f.write("Hello Python!\n")

with open("hello.txt", "r+b") as f:
    # memory-map the file, size 0 means whole file
    map = mmap.mmap(f.fileno(), 0)
    # read content via standard file methods
    print map.readline()  # prints "Hello Python!"
    # read content via slice notation
    print map[:5]  # prints "Hello"
    # update content using slice notation;
    # note that new content must have same size
    map[6:] = " world!\n"
    # ... and read again using standard file methods
    map.seek(0)
    print map.readline()  # prints "Hello  world!"
    # close the map
    map.close()
