I have a Python file with a function where I generate a list. This list will be used in other Python files. I'm doing it by importing the Python function that generates the list.
How do I load the list in the other files?
Python code that generates the list:
def elementID (my_list):
input_file_path = "archivo.txt"
my_list = []
with open(input_file_path, "r") as in_file:
for line in in_file:
str = line.strip()
my_list.append(str)
Code where the list is obtained:
#def elementID ():
#
# input_file_path = "Elements_to_extract_forces.txt"
# elements_list = []
# with open(input_file_path, "r") as in_file:
# for line in in_file:
# str = line.strip()
# elements_list.append(str)
# #print elements_list
# return elements_list
def elementID ():
input_file_path = "Elements_to_extract_forces.txt"
with open(input_file_path, "r") as in_file:
return [line.strip() for line in in_file]
Code for another Python file where we load the generated list before:
from Read_element_IDs import elementID
element_list = elementID()
print element_list
Print the list on the screen. It works.
