I have a text file that looks like this:
unknown value 1
unknown value 2
unknown value 3
unknown value 4
unknown value 5
How can I choose a line and replace its contents with another string?
For example:
Change unknown value 1 to unknown value 0.
How can I accomplish this?
解决方案import fileinput
for line in fileinput.input('inFile.txt', inplace=True):
print line.rstrip().replace('oldLine', 'newLine'),
This replaces all lines with the text 'oldLine', if you want to replace only the first one then you need to add a condition and break out of the loop.
Adding rstrip() avoids adding an extra space after each line
