I have input.txt
file and output.txt
file which are passed in argument in Python script. I am reading input file content using readline()
function. Before I update to current line and write it to output file, I want to check some condition on upcoming lines as described below. Could you please provide me some guidance? Thank you.
I want to update current line with internal_account
value (random number with 16 digits) from 11th location if line starts with 01065008
and following condition are met.
06
and06
has value as USD
from 6th characterinput.txt

input.txt
file has pattern:
1st line will start with 010065008
2nd line will start with 02
...
6th line will start with 06
1st line will start with 010065008
...
What I have tried?
import random
import sys
infile=open(sys.argv[1], 'r')
lines=infile.readlines()
outfile=open(sys.argv[2], 'w')
internal_account = random.randint(1000000000000000,9999999999999999)
formattedStr = ''
for line in lines:
if line[0:8] == '01065008':
formattedStr='%s%s%s'%(line[0:10],internal_account,line[26:])
outfile.write(formattedStr)
else:
outfile.write(line)
outfile.close()
To check forward in the text file, read all the lines into a list then use the line index to check forward lines. Use the enumerate
function to the track the line index.

You were not far from finding a good solution. Using enumerate on input lines let use use the index to check future lines so you can verify if all your conditions are fulfilled. You need to catch IndexError so that no exception is raised when there are not enough lines left.
Other minor modifications I made in your code:
import random
import sys
input_file, output_file = sys.argv[0:2]
internal_account = random.randint(1e15, 9999999999999999)
with open(input_file, "r") as stream:
input_lines = stream.readlines()
with open(output_file, "w") as stream:
for index, line in enumerate(input_lines):
try:
update_account = (
line.startswith("01065008")
and input_lines[index + 5].startswith("06")
and input_lines[index + 5][5:8] == "USD"
)
except IndexError:
update_account = False
if update_account:
line = line[0:10] + str(internal_account) + line[26:]
stream.write(line)
