Python Programming - XII. File Processing
9 likes•2,848 views
The document discusses file handling and processing in Python. It covers opening and closing files, different file open modes like read, write and append, parsing files, buffering, and random access files. Common file operations like reading, writing, splitting and stripping file contents are demonstrated. The document also provides examples of parsing HTML and CSV files, using files with classes, and serializing objects for efficient storage and transfer.

- 3. Data Hierarchy File Processing File-Open Modes Dissecting Files The Power of Buffering
- 5. FILE HANDLING variables offer only temporary storage of data they are lost when they “goes out of scope” or when the program terminates
- 6. FILE HANDLING files are used for long-term retention of large amounts of data, even after the program that created the data terminates. data maintained in files is called persistent data
- 7. FILE HANDLING | Data Hierarchy Bit (“Binary digit”) => the smallest computer data item Bit is a digit that can assume one of two values
- 8. FILE HANDLING | Data Hierarchy Programming with low-level bit formats is tedious & boring. use decimal digits, letters, and symbols instead.
- 9. FILE HANDLING | Data Hierarchy Characters are made-up of digits, letters, and characters. Characters are represented as combination of bits (bytes).
- 10. FILE HANDLING | Data Hierarchy
- 11. FILE HANDLING | Data Hierarchy Field (Column) is a collection of characters, represented as words. Record (Row) is a collection of fields, represented as a tuple, dictionary, instance of a class. File (Table) is a collection of records, implemented as sequential access or random-access. Database (Folder) is a collection of files, handled by DBMS softwares.

- 17. FILE HANDLING | Common Modes Open Mode r w Read Write Appends Overwrites Creates Cursor @ Start Cursor @ EOF
- 18. FILE HANDLING | open() “r” is the default file-open mode open(“input.dat”) = open(“input.dat”, “r”)

- 46. FILE HANDLING | r+, w+, a+ All of the "plus" modes allow reading and writing: the main difference between them is where we're positioned in the file. “r+” puts us at the beginning “w+” puts us at the beginning & the end, because the file's truncated “a+” puts us at the end.
- 47. FILE HANDLING | w+
- 48. FILE HANDLING | Buffering
- 49. FILE HANDLING | Buffering “-1” is the default file-open buffering mode open(“input.dat”) = open(“input.dat”, “r”, “-1”) Flag Meaning 0 unbuffered 1 buffered line n buffered with size n -1 system default
- 50. FILE HANDLING | Creating A Big File!
- 51. FILE HANDLING | Unbuffered r Then, let’s read that big file.
- 52. FILE HANDLING | Buffered r Now, with the help of buffering.
- 53. FILE HANDLING | Buffered By Default In other languages, like C or Java, buffering is not the default mode.
- 54. FILE HANDLING | What else? 1. Random-Access Files: for fast searching/editing of records * use the shelve module * shelve.open() 2. Serialization: compressing file as objects for efficiency; useful for transferring data (objects, sequences, etc) across a network connection or saving states of a game * use the pickle or cPickle module * cPickle.dump(stringList_to_be_written, serialized_file) * records = cPickle.load(serialized_file)

- 59. PRACTICE EXERCISE| MORSE CODE A. Read a file containing Filipino/English-language phrases and encodes it into Morse code. B. Read a Morse code file and converts it into the Filipino/English-language equivalent. Use one blank between each Morse-coded letter and three blanks between each Morse-coded word.
