[Tutor] Need URGENT support ... PL

[nitin chandra]

Hi all,

I have been getting support on this from the list, but unfortunately
now it has become URGENT that i get some solution to this problem i
need to resolve.

What i have done is create FileA.CSV whose structure is as follows :-
(no blank spaces, this is just for representation)
/home/nitin/path/To/PRl1/File1.csv , /home/nitin/path/To/PR3/File1.csv
, /home/nitin/path/To/PR2/File1.csv
/home/nitin/path/To/PRl1/File2.csv , /home/nitin/path/To/PR3/File2.csv
, /home/nitin/path/To/PR2/File2.csv
/home/nitin/path/To/PRl1/File3.csv , /home/nitin/path/To/PR3/File3.csv
, /home/nitin/path/To/PR2/File3.csv
/home/nitin/path/To/PRl1/File4.csv , /home/nitin/path/To/PR3/File4.csv
, /home/nitin/path/To/PR2/File4.csv
...
...
(96) rows

The first column is INPUT Protocol-1 File1
Second Column is INPUT Protocol-3 File1
Third Column is OUTPUT Protocol-2 File1

Each File (eg. PR1/File1 , PR3/File1 ) have approx. 600 rows of 39
column, numeric data. These data files end in a blank new line / blank
line.

Through the following code I am trying to read the TWO input files,
extract columns, Add , Divide (take mean of the values) and write to
THEIR respective OUTPUT files.

My script reads the first file and displays all the rows (print) from
PR1/File1 and then program terminates. IT does not read the Second
file (PR3/File1) and therefore i am unable to write the result out to
the OUTPUT file (PR2/File1).

Earlier I was able to create ONE file ... like the loop would run ONCE
and would not do the same process to the NEXT set of files (PR1/File2
, PR3/File2 , PR2/File2) and do the same.... till it has done
processing all the 96 set of files.

here is the code
PL ... PL .... I REALLY need this solution.

*****************************
import sys, os, fileinput


FileA = raw_input('Enter CSV file with List of Files :')
try:
   fp1 = open(FileA,'r')
   #print fp1
except IOError:
   sys.exit('Could not open File : %s' % FileA)

for rows in fp1:
    #print rows
    row11 = rows.split(",")
    #print row1
    row1 = row11[0]
    row2 = row11[1]
    row3 = row11[2]
    #print row1
    #print row2
    #print row3
    try:
       fp2 = open(row1,'r')
       #print fp2
    except IOError:
       sys.exit('Could not open File %s.' % fp2)
    try:
       fp3 = open(row2,'r')
       #print fp3
    except IOError:
       sys.exit('Could not open File %s.' % fp3)
    try:
       fp4 = open(row3,'w')
       #print fp4
    except IOError:
       sys.exit('Could not open File %s to write.' % fp4)

    row21 = fp2.readline().split(",")
    row31 = fp3.readline().split(",")
    #print row21
    row22 = row21[0]
    row23 = row21[1]
    row24 = row21[2]
    row25 = row21[3]
    row26 = row21[21]
    row27 = row21[22]
    row28 = row21[23]

    row32 = row31[1]
    row33 = row31[2]
    row34 = row31[3]
    row35 = row31[21]
    row36 = row31[22]
    row37 = row31[23]
    print "PR1", row22, row23, row24, row25, row26, row27, row28,
"PR3", row32, row33, row34, row35, row36, row37

    ## Doing the Addition is also not the problem. I am not able to put this
    ## whole process in a loop.
    ## do the calculation and write to file.
    ## and do the same thing with the next set of files. Till 96 sets
