Dear group,
I have ~40 tab-delimitted text files in one
directory. I have to select 4th column from all these
files and write it into a single tab delimitted text
file. How can I do this in python.
I read a prev. post on tutor and tried the following:
>>files = listdir('path')
This returns the files(file names) in the directory as
a list. However, I need the 4th column from all the
files in the directory.
Can you please help me.
Thank you.
-kumar
