What is the proper way to read text file from internet. For example text file here https://gist.githubusercontent.com/deekayen/4148741/raw/01c6252ccc5b5fb307c1bb899c95989a8a284616/1-1000.txt
Code below works but produces extra 'b
in front of each word
from urllib.request import urlopen
#url = 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/first20hours/google-10000-english/master/google-10000-english.txt'
url = 'https://gist.githubusercontent.com/deekayen/4148741/raw/01c6252ccc5b5fb307c1bb899c95989a8a284616/1-1000.txt'
#data = urlopen(url)
#print('H w')
# it's a file like object and works just like a file
l = set()
data = urlopen(url)
for line in data: # files are iterable
word = line.strip()
print(word)
l.add(word)
print(l)
You have to decode each byte object to unicode . For that you can use the method decode('utf-8')
. Here's the code:
from urllib.request import urlopen
url = 'https://gist.githubusercontent.com/deekayen/4148741/raw/01c6252ccc5b5fb307c1bb899c95989a8a284616/1-1000.txt'
l = set()
data = urlopen(url)
for line in data: # files are iterable
word = line.strip().decode('utf-8') # decode the line into unicode
print(word)
l.add(word)
print(l)
It's simple using pandas. Just execute
import pandas as pd
pd.read_csv('https://gist.githubusercontent.com/deekayen/4148741/raw/01c6252ccc5b5fb307c1bb899c95989a8a284616/1-1000.txt')
and you are all set:)
