Hello List, I have a dictionary that I would like to update/add rows to it as I read a file line by line.
The dictionary format looks like: format = {'Cell': '','7':'','8':'','9':'','2':''} For each line read in I would simply like to check to see if a Cell key;value exists and if it does update the correct key==band(7,8,9,2) within the dictionary. If the Cell doesn't exist do the same thing as above only make sure to update the Cell key:value with it's value form the file so it can check to see if it exists later. There are duplicate Cell:values in the file so when there is a duplicate it will need to look at band to see what key:value to update. Below is what I have attempted thus far. I can provide sample data if needed. Thank you in advance. import datetime import string import pprint from datetime import datetime # Open a files for reading inFileOne = open('PRB_utilization.txt', "r") iDas = "DB" oDas = "D" suffix = (iDas,oDas) dict = {'Cell': '','7':'','8':'','9':'','2':''} for line in inFileOne.readlines(): index = line.rstrip("\n").split("\t") cell = index[1] if cell.endswith(suffix, 14, 16) is False: eNb = cell[0:8] sector = cell[10:11] band = cell[9:10] dl_prb_utl = index[60] site = eNb + "_" + sector if site in dict: dict['Cell'] = site dict[band] = dl_prb_utl else: dict['Cell'] = site dict[band] = dl_prb_utl inFileOne.close(); _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
