Hi Team,
How to replace particular line text with new text on a file
i have below code but its writing whole code.
def replace_line(file_name, line_num, text):
lines = open(file_name, 'r').readlines()
lines[line_num] = text
out = open(file_name, 'w')
out.writelines(lines) <<<<< *writing back whole file instead of
particular line*
out.close()
replace_line('stats.txt', 0, 'good')
Thanks,
Iranna M
