You seem to be implying that there is a serial number of every 4th line.
Would you know how to just display every 4th line?
Can you show us your code to do that?
=============
Edit: Python2
Change the file name to your file and see if this prints out only the lines with serial number.
file = open ("phelp.txt")
data = file.readlines ()
i = 0
for line in data:
--- if (i%4==0): print line
--- i += 1
file.close ()
Okay, so I'm doing a practise controlled assessment for computer science, and I'm really struggling with this particular part as I really only started learning Python just 4 weeks ago.
The task asks you to search for a serial number within a text file and then print out the relevant details to accompany it, which can be found in the 3 lines underneath the serial number. I honestly am not sure how to approach this and I've only got as far as
opening the file in read mode on Python :) Any help would be much appreciated.
