Here is my code..try:
data=open('info.txt')
for each_line in data:
try:
(role,line_spoken)=each_line.split(':',1)
print(role,end='')
print(' said: ',end='')
print(line_spoken,end='')
except ValueError:
print(each_line)
data.close()
except IOError:
print("File is missing")The actual output is
Man said: Is this the right room for an argument?
Other Man said: I've told you once.
Man said: No you haven't!
Other Man said: Yes I have.The characters "" got added to the contents of
my file in the beginning. Later identified it as a encoding problem. I cleared
the problem by adding the encoding arguments when opening the file(
data=open('info.txt',encoding='utf-8-sig')).Now my question is each time do I
have to make this change or is there away to make this encoding a default one?
