Python . How to get rid of '\r' in string?
- by draconisthe0ry
I have an excel file that I converted to a text file with a list of numbers.
test = 'filelocation.txt'
in_file = open(test,'r')
for line in in_file:
print line
1.026106236
1.660274766
2.686381002
4.346655769
7.033036771
1.137969254
a = []
for line in in_file:
a.append(line) print a
'1.026106236\r1.660274766\r2.686381002\r4.346655769\r7.033036771\r1.137969254'
I wanted to assign each value (in each line) to an individual element in the list. Instead it is creating one element separated by \r . i'm not sure what \r is but why is putting these into the code ?
I think I know a way to get rid of the \r from the string but i want to fix the problem from the source
