Hi,
some hints:
1) strings are iterables
And so are files.... ;-)
2) help(zip)
3) help(enumerate)
Write a program that compare the two files given by users. If the
two files' content is equal, just print "equal". Else, print the
rows And column number of the first different position.
In pseudocode you could do:
f1 = open(file1)
f2 = open(file2)
lineNum = 1
while True:
line = f1.readline()
if line != f2.readline():
print lineNum, " : ", line
exit
else:
lineNum += 1
print "equal"
But there other approaches you could use.
