python中如何在写文件之前删除文件内容_如何在Python中从文件中读取和删除前n行 – 优雅解决方案...

参见英文答案 > Remove lines from textfile with python                                    5个

我有一个相当大的文件~1MB大小,我希望能够读取前N行,将它们保存到列表(新列表)供以后使用,然后删除它们.

我能够这样做：

import os

n = 3 #the number of line to be read and deleted

with open("bigFile.txt") as f:

mylist = f.read().splitlines()

newlist = mylist[:n]

os.remove("bigFile.txt")

thefile = open('bigFile.txt', 'w')

del mylist[:n]

for item in mylist:

thefile.write("%s\n" % item)

我知道这在效率方面看起来不太好,这就是为什么我需要更好的东西,但在寻找不同的解决方案后,我一直坚持这个.

解决方法:

文件是它自己的迭代器.

n = 3

nfirstlines = []

with open("bigFile.txt") as f, open("bigfiletmp.txt", "w") as out:

for x in xrange(n):

nfirstlines.append(next(f))

for line in f:

out.write(line)

# NB : it seems that `os.rename()` complains on some systems

# if the destination file already exists.

os.remove("bigfile.txt")

os.rename("bigfiletmp.txt", "bigfile.txt")
