Hi,
Go easy on me as I am a new to Python and am trying to solve a practical
problem that is driving me bananas.
Basically I have 2 text files, a source and a target. I want to be able to
delete all of the lines in the target file which contain text from any line
in the source file.
i.e.
Source: Target:
111 xxx 111 yyy
222 xxx 333 sss
333 jjj 444 sss
After executing this code the target file should only consist of the line:
jjj 444 sss
Any help on this one would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Rudi
