This question may be very simple and easy. The column of my data file is separated by # instead of tab or comma. Such as: 123#142#5#98#......
In this format, it seems that I can't read whole value of 123 or 142 when I tried to read a value in one column at certain line.
Do you have any idea to solve this issue such as changing # to true separation like tab or comma?
I will really appreciate any help or idea.
Thank you, Isaac
When reading, you can use csv.reader()
which takes a delimiter
parameter like this:
>>> with open(your_file, "r") as f:
... data = [x for x in csv.reader(f, delimiter='#')]
...
>>>
And when you're writing, csv.writer()
accepts the same parameter..
>>> with open("foo.txt", "w") as f:
... w = csv.writer(f, delimiter=',')
... w.writerows(data)
...
>>>
Here's a combined example:
>>> with open("test.csv", "r") as inp, open("foo.csv", "w") as out:
... w = csv.writer(out, delimiter=",")
... w.writerows(x for x in csv.reader(inp, delimiter="#"))
...
>>>
Contents of test.csv
:
123#142#5#98
foo#bar#baz#baf
Contents of foo.csv
:
123,142,5,98
foo,bar,baz,baf
you have data then
data ='123#142#5#98#1234'
data_list=data.split('#')
for each_element in data_list:
print each_element
