I have problem with changing a dict value and saving the dict to a text file (the format must be same), I only want to change the member_phone
field.
My text file is the following format:
memberID:member_name:member_email:member_phone
and I split the text file with:
mdict={}
for line in file:
x=line.split(':')
a=x[0]
b=x[1]
c=x[2]
d=x[3]
e=b+':'+c+':'+d
mdict[a]=e
When I try change the member_phone
stored in d
, the value has changed not flow by the key,
def change(mdict,b,c,d,e):
a=input('ID')
if a in mdict:
d= str(input('phone'))
mdict[a]=b+':'+c+':'+d
else:
print('not')
and how to save the dict to a text file with same format?
Python has the pickle module just for this kind of thing.
These functions are all that you need for saving and loading almost any object:
def save_obj(obj, name ):
with open('obj/'+ name + '.pkl', 'wb') as f:
pickle.dump(obj, f, pickle.HIGHEST_PROTOCOL)
def load_obj(name ):
with open('obj/' + name + '.pkl', 'rb') as f:
return pickle.load(f)
These functions assume that you have an obj
folder in your current working directory, which will be used to store the objects.
Note that pickle.HIGHEST_PROTOCOL
is a binary format, which could not be always convenient, but is good for performance. Protocol 0
is a text format.
In order to save collections of Python there is the shelve module.
