#John Bible 11/2/21 #What I learned was how to use readline and strip. #What I had problems with was keeping up with the way the coding needed to be ordered but I overcame this by looking back at previous examples.

# [ ]Run to download file poem1.txt !curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/MicrosoftLearning/intropython/master/poem1.txt -o poem1.txt

# [ ] review and run example # open address to file poem1 = open('poem1.txt', 'r')

# [ ] review and run example # readline 1, 2, 3 poem_line1 = poem1.readline() poem_line2 = poem1.readline() poem_line3 = poem1.readline()

# [ ] review and run example: print the first 3 .readline() values print(poem_line1 + poem_line2 + poem_line3)

# [ ] review and run example printing return value & re-run several times print(poem1.readline())

# [ ] review and run example to close file in memory- then run previous cell poem1.close()

# [ ] import https://raw.githubusercontent.com/MicrosoftLearning/intropython/master/rainbow as rainbow.txt #This will import a site as rainbow.txt !curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/MicrosoftLearning/intropython/master/rainbow -o rainbow.txt

# [ ] open rainbow.txt as rainbow_text #This will open rainbow.txt as rainbow_text rainbow_text=open("rainbow.txt","r")

# [ ] close rainbow.txt #This will close rainbow.txt rainbow_text=rainbow_text.close()

# [ ] review and run example # open address to file poem1 = open('poem1.txt', 'r')

# [ ] review and run example - use a while loop to read each line of a file # remove last character ('\n') and print as upper case poem_line = poem1.readline() while poem_line: print(poem_line[:-1].upper()) poem_line = poem1.readline()

# [ ] review and run example poem1.close()

# [ ] open rainbow.txt as rainbow_text as read-only #This will open rainbow.txt as rainbow_text rainbow_text=open("rainbow.txt","r")

# [ ] read the color from lines of rainbow_text in a while loop # [ ] print each color capitalized as the loop runs #This will capitalize each color from rainbow_text for color in rainbow_text: print(color.upper())

# [ ] review and run example - readline while loop without removing '\n' poem_line = poem1.readline() while poem_line: print(poem_line) poem_line = poem1.readline() poem1.close()

# [ ] open rainbow.txt as rainbow_text as read-only #This will open rainbow.txt as rainbow_text rainbow_text=open("rainbow.txt","r")

# [ ] read a color from each line of rainbow_text in a while loop # use .strip to remove the whitespace '\n' character # print each color upper case #This will strip \n from each color and then make each color uppercase color = rainbow_text.readline().strip() while color: print(color.upper()) color = rainbow_text.readline().strip() rainbow_text=rainbow_text.close()

# [ ] review and run example: import rainbow_messy.txt !curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/MicrosoftLearning/intropython/master/rainbow_messy -o rainbow_messy.txt

# [ ] review and run example: open file read only rainbow_messy = open('rainbow_messy.txt', 'r')

# [ ] review and run example: .readline() without .strip() color = rainbow_messy.readline() while color: print(color) color = rainbow_messy.readline()

# [ ] review and run example: strip "*" and newline ('\n') rainbow_messy = open('rainbow_messy.txt', 'r') color = rainbow_messy.readline().strip('*\n') while color: print(color) color = rainbow_messy.readline().strip('*\n') rainbow_messy.close()

# [ ] edit the code to remove leading or trailing colon, newline and space characters #This will remove leading or trailing colon, newline and space characters line = cities_messy.readline().strip(' :\n') while line: print(line) line = cities_messy.readline().strip(' :\n') cities_messy=cities_messy.close()
