Process a file in Python at Thursday, May 22, 2008

Simple snippet which processes each line of a file. Each line of the file contained data in space separated columns. I was interested in row where the 2nd and 3rd columns differed.

f = open("text.txt")

for line in f:
  words = line.split()
  if len(words[1]) != len(words[2]):
    print line

f.close()
