Rewrite Code

Question

Joe Hart 0 Light Poster

15 Years Ago

Hi This is my second post. I am new to python. I hope I have posted my code correctly. I am trying to have Python rewrite the compare.asc file. This file is used with another program called MUST. This is a transmission line program. This program is suppose to compare the differences between two cases. I would like to ask the user where the files are located and the name of the files. The files of interest are the .sav, .sub,.con, .mon. The .sav case will change but the .sub, .con, .mon should not change for the comparison. I would like the default dir to be C:\Temp\TestPy, but allow the user to change this file if necessary. This program will then pull the text files back into excel and find the differences in the numbers. I have not yet finished that macro yet. I don't know how to ask the user the location and file name ( keeping the default location). Have the users answers read back into the two .asc files and save these files as .asc files before it starts to run the MUST section.
I appreciate any help I can get with this.
Thanks,
Joe

You're more likely to get help if you follow the posting guidelines for this forum, including but not limited to using code tags, showing effort, and providing simple examples of reproducible errors.

After skimming over your crazy long post I'll give you an example of asking the user for input and using it to open a file:

import os

usr_path = raw_input( 'Please provide the path of the file: ' )
if os.path.exists( usr_path ): # Check for file existing
    f = open( usr_path ) # Open for reading
    lines = f.readlines()   # Read in the contents
    f.close()                     # Close the file
else:
    print 'File does not exist'

HTH
