I have created a list in microsoft notepad...i would like to know if it is possible to import that data to edit in my python editor?
i have used this code but im not sure why it is not working.
f = open("productlist.txt","r+")
d = f.readlines()
f.seek(0)
for i in d:
if i != "Servers":
f.write(i)
f.truncate()
f.close()

The problem in your code is that you are taking the value of f.readlines()
into the variable d
. so, when you are iterating, you are not going through the file, instead, you are going through the first line of the file. Try doing d = f.readlines
instead.
