I've just started to test/learn python.
I've got Linux > mandrake9 > python & documentation.
What I'll initially want to be doing needs file I/O, so I
wanted to confirm file I/O early in my tests.
Following the examples :
>>> f=open('/tmp/workfile', 'w')
>>> print f
<open file '/tmp/workfile', mode 'w' at 80a0960> <-- OK
But:
>>> f.read(size)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
NameError: name 'size' is not defined <-- ?? Obj-method unknown ??
What's wrong ?
I read: "The set of such modules is a configuration
option which also depends on the underlying platform."
My documenation refers also to Mac & Win installations.
Is there a linux > python NewsGroup ?
Thanks for any info.
