I'm trying to compare portions of lines in two notepad++ files against each other using two variables(vg_line and sn_line)in order to combine them together if equal. Once it has found its pair it prints out certain information from each for loop, but it only finds the first pair and doesn't continue to loop through vg_lines file in order to compare other lines with sn_lines file.
input_file = open(input_VG_name)
input_Server_name = open(input_Server_name)
for line in input_file:
line_data = line.strip()
vg_line = line_data[0:44]
volume_group = line_data[44:58]
for line1 in input_Server_name:
line_data = line1.strip()
sn_line = line_data[0:44]
server_name = line_data[46:64]
if vg_line == sn_line:
print(vg_line, volume_group, server_name)
First post so any tips on what I can do better coding/asking questions is much appreciated!
You are not reading the files
Try the following:
input_file = r'c:\file.txt'
input_Server_name = r'c:\server_file.txt'
with open(input_file, 'r') as file:
for line in file.readlines():
line_data = line.strip()
vg_line = line_data[0:44]
volume_group = line_data[44:58]
with open(input_Server_name, 'r') as file1:
for line1 in file1.readlines():
line1_data = line1.strip()
sn_line = line1_data[0:44]
server_name = line1_data[46:64]
if vg_line == sn_line:
print(vg_line, volume_group, server_name)
The thing is: this code will have to read the second file for every line in the first file (which is what I got from your original code).
There are other methods two match to files up, have a search around, there are plenty of answers. Don't forget to check "Code Review" which has some good examples as well.

Not sure what I am doing wrong.
I want to convert multiple docx.files to pdf.files - each file into a separate one.
I decided to use the "doconv"-package with following command:
docx_files <- list.files(pattern=paste0("Protokollnr_"))[39:73]
docx_files %>% length
lapply(1:35, function(x) {
docx2pdf(input = docx_files[[x]],
output = tempfile(fileext = ".pdf"))})
I does not say anything specific in the error message - only that it cannot be converted.
Is it that I should have specified the file path - now I only define the file name in my WD.
The object "docx_files" contain:
c("Protokollnr_1.docx", "Protokollnr_10.docx", "Protokollnr_11.docx",
"Protokollnr_12.docx", "Protokollnr_13.docx", "Protokollnr_14.docx",
"Protokollnr_15.docx", "Protokollnr_16.docx", "Protokollnr_17.docx",
"Protokollnr_18.docx", "Protokollnr_19.docx", "Protokollnr_2.docx",
"Protokollnr_20.docx", "Protokollnr_21.docx", "Protokollnr_22.docx",
"Protokollnr_23.docx", "Protokollnr_24.docx", "Protokollnr_25.docx",
"Protokollnr_26.docx", "Protokollnr_27.docx", "Protokollnr_28.docx",
"Protokollnr_29.docx", "Protokollnr_3.docx", "Protokollnr_30.docx",
"Protokollnr_31.docx", "Protokollnr_32.docx", "Protokollnr_33.docx",
"Protokollnr_34.docx", "Protokollnr_35.docx", "Protokollnr_4.docx",
"Protokollnr_5.docx", "Protokollnr_6.docx", "Protokollnr_7.docx",
"Protokollnr_8.docx", "Protokollnr_9.docx")
The error message is:
Error in docx2pdf(input = docx_files[[x]], output = tempfile(fileext = ".pdf")) :
could not convert C:/Users/Nadine/OneDrive/Documents/Arbeit_Büro_papa/Protokolle_Sallapulka/fertige_Protokolle/Protokollnr_1.docx
Many thanks,

I'd recommend specifying the file path since the function requires the following format:
docx2pdf(input, output = gsub("\\.docx$", ".pdf", input))
This script is working in so far that the output is correct. However it is not populating the CSV file for me. But only populating the last iteration of the loop. Being new to IDL, I need to grasp this concept of the keyword.
I believe I need a keyword, but my attempts of inserting this have all failed.
Can some amend the script so that the csv file populates fully please.

; This program is the extract the Latitute, Longigitude & Altitute

the_file_list = file_search('D:/Rwork/Project/25_Files/','*.nc')
FOR filein = 0, N_ElEMENTS (the_file_list)-1 DO BEGIN
station = NCDF_OPEN(the_file_list[filein])
NCDF_VARGET, station, 'station_name', St_Name
NCDF_VARGET, station, 'lat', latitude
NCDF_VARGET, station, 'lon', longitude
NCDF_VARGET, station, 'alt', height

; Add each station data to the file
WRITE_CSV, 'LatLon.csv', the_file_list[filein],latitude,longitude,height
ENDFOR
RETURN
END
WRITE_CSV overwrites the file every time it is called, hence you only ever see the last entry.
Create arrays to hold all the values before the for loop:
n_files = N_ElEMENTS(the_file_list)
latitude_arr = DBLARR(n_files) ; Assuming type is double
longitude_arr = DBLARR(n_files)
height_arr = DBLARR(n_files)
In your for loop fill them with:
latitude_arr[filein] = latitude
longitude_arr[filein] = longitude
height_arr[filein] = height
Then after the for loop, write them with:
WRITE_CSV, 'LatLon.csv', the_file_list, latitude_arr, longitude_arr, height_arr
I have the following strings:
F:\Sheyenne\ROI\SWIR32_subset\SWIR32_2005210_East_A.dat
F:\Sheyenne\ROI\SWIR32_subset\SWIR32_2005210_Froemke-Hoy.dat
and from each I want to extract the three variables, 1. SWIR32 2. the date and 3. the text following the date. I want to automate this process for about 200 files, so individually selecting the locations won't exactly work for me.
so I want:
variable1=SWIR32
variable2=2005210
variable3=East_A
variable4=SWIR32
variable5=2005210
variable6=Froemke-Hoy
I am going to be using these to add titles to graphs later on, but since the position of the text in each string varies I am unsure how to do this using strmid
I think you want to use a combination of STRPOS and STRSPLIT. Something like the following:
s = ['F:\Sheyenne\ROI\SWIR32_subset\SWIR32_2005210_East_A.dat', $
'F:\Sheyenne\ROI\SWIR32_subset\SWIR32_2005210_Froemke-Hoy.dat']
name = STRARR(s.length)
date = name
txt = name
foreach sub, s, i do begin
sub = STRMID(sub, 1+STRPOS(sub, '\', /REVERSE_SEARCH))
parts = STRSPLIT(sub, '_', /EXTRACT)
name[i] = parts[0]
date[i] = parts[1]
txt[i] = STRJOIN(parts[2:*], '_')
endforeach
You could also do this with a regular expression (using just STRSPLIT) but regular expressions tend to be complicated and error prone.
Hope this helps!
I'm trying to read a file and put contents in a list. I have done this mnay times before and it has worked but this time it throws back the error "list index out of range".
the code is:
with open("File.txt") as f:
scores = []
for line in f:
fields = line.split()
scores.append( (fields[0], fields[1]))
print(scores)
The text file is in the format;
Alpha:[0, 1]
Bravo:[0, 0]
Charlie:[60, 8, 901]
Foxtrot:[0]
I cant see why it is giving me this problem. Is it because I have more than one value for each item? Or is it the fact that I have a colon in my text file?
How can I get around this problem?
Thanks
If I understand you well this code will print you desired result:
import re
with open("File.txt") as f:
# Let's make dictionary for scores {name:scores}.
scores = {}
# Define regular expressin to parse team name and team scores from line.
patternScore = '\[([^\]]+)\]'
patternName = '(.*):'
for line in f:
# Find value for team name and its scores.
fields = re.search(patternScore, line).groups()[0].split(', ')
name = re.search(patternName, line).groups()[0]
# Update dictionary with new value.
scores[name] = fields
# Print output first goes first element of keyValue in dict then goes keyName
for key in scores:
print (scores[key][0] + ':' + key)
You will recieve following output:
60:Charlie
0:Alpha
0:Bravo
0:Foxtrot
I want to cut large csv files (file size more than RAM size) and use them or save each in disk for later usage. Which R package is best for doing this for large files?
I haven't tried but using skip and nrows parameters in read.table or read.csv is worth a try. These are from ?read.table
skip integer: the number of lines of the data file to skip before
beginning to read data.
nrows integer: the maximum number of rows to read in. Negative and
other invalid values are ignored.
To avoid some troublesome issues at the end you need to do some error handling. In other words I don't know what happpens when skip value is greater than the number of rows in your big csv.
p.s. I also don't know whether header=TRUE is affecting skip or not, you also have to check that.
The answer given bu #berkorbay is OK and I can confirm that header can be used with skip. However, if your file is really large it gets painfully slow, as each subsequent reading after the first must skip over all previously read lines.
I had to do something similar and, after wasting quite a bit of time, I wrote a short script in PERL which fragments the original file in chuncks that you can read one after the other. It is much faster. I enclose the source here, translating some parts so that the intent is clear:
#!/usr/bin/perl
system("cls");
print("Fragment .csv file keeping header in each chunk\n") ;
print("\nEnter input file name = ") ;
$entrada = <STDIN> ;
print("\nEnter maximum number of lines in each fragment = ") ;
$nlineas = <STDIN> ;
print("\nEnter output file name stem = ") ;
$salida = <STDIN> ;
chop($salida) ;
open(IN,$entrada) || die "Cannot open input file: $!\n" ;
$cabecera = <IN> ;
$leidas = 0 ;
$fragmento = 1 ;
$fichero = $salida.$fragmento ;
open(OUT,">$fichero") || die "Cannot open output file: $!\n" ;
print OUT $cabecera ;
while(<IN>) {
if ($leidas > $nlineas) {
close(OUT) ;
$fragmento++ ;
$fichero = $salida.$fragmento ;
open(OUT,">$fichero") || die "Cannot open output file: $!\n" ;
print OUT $cabecera ;
$leidas = 0;
}
$leidas++ ;
print OUT $_ ;
}
close(OUT) ;
Just save with whatever name and execute. The first line might have to be changed if you have PERL in a diferent place (an, if you are on Windows, you migh have to invoke the script as "perl name-of-script").
One should have used read.csv.ffdf of ff package with specific parameters like this to read big file:
library(ff)
a <- read.csv.ffdf(file="big.csv", header=TRUE, VERBOSE=TRUE, first.rows=1000000, next.rows=1000000, colClasses=NA)
Once big file is read into a ff object, Subsetting ffobject into data frames can be done using:
a[1000:1000000,]
Rest of the code for subsetting and saving broken dataframes
totalrows = dim(a)[1]
row.size = as.integer(object.size(a[1:10000,])) / 10000 #in bytes
block.size = 200000000 #in bytes .IN Mbs 200 Mb
#rows.block is rows per block
rows.block = ceiling(block.size/row.size)
#nmaps is the number of chunks/maps of big dataframe(ff), nmaps = number of maps - 1
nmaps = floor(totalrows/rows.block)
for(i in (0:nmaps)){
if(i==nmaps){
df = a[(i*rows.block+1) : totalrows,]
}
else{
df = a[(i*rows.block+1) : ((i+1)*rows.block),]
}
#process df or save it
write.csv(df,paste0("M",i+1,".csv"))
#remove df
rm(df)
}
Alternatively you can first read the files into mysql using dbWriteTable and then use read.dbi.ffdf function from the ETLUtils package to read it back to R. Consider the function below;
read.csv.sql.ffdf <- function(file, name,overwrite = TRUE, header = TRUE, drv = MySQL(), dbname = "new", username = "root",host='localhost', password = "1234"){
conn = dbConnect(drv, user = username, password = password, host = host, dbname = dbname)
dbWriteTable(conn, name, file, header = header, overwrite = overwrite)
on.exit(dbRemoveTable(conn, name))
command = paste0("select * from ", name)
ret = read.dbi.ffdf(command, dbConnect.args = list(drv =drv, dbname = dbname, username = username, password = password))
return(ret)
}
