Error reading file with accented vowels
- by Daniel Dcs
The following statement to fill a list from a file :
action = []
with open (os.getcwd() + "/files/" + "actions.txt") as temp:
action = list (temp)
gives me the following error:
(result, consumed) = self._buffer_decode (data, self.errors, end)
UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf-8' codec can not decode byte 0xf1 in position 67: invalid continuation byte
if I add errors = 'ignore':
action = []
with open (os.getcwd () + "/ files /" + "actions.txt", errors = 'ignore') as temp:
action = list (temp)
Is read the file but not the ñ and vowels accented á-é-í-ó-ú being that python 3 works, as I have understood, default to 'utf-8'
I'm looking for a solution for two or more days, and I'm getting more confused.
In advance thank you very much for any suggestions.
