描述
Retrieving a Line at Random from a File of Unknown Size 读取未知大小文件的随机一行
问题 Problem
有文件,不清楚大小(但是可能非常大),需要忽略文件本身,只读取数据的随机一行。
解决 Solution
We do need to read the whole file, but we don't have to read it all at once: 需要读取文件的全部数据,但是不是一次全部读出:
import random
def randomLine(file_object):
"顺序读取文件内容,取文件的随机的一行"
lineNum = 0
selected_line = ''
while 1:
aLine = file_object.readline( )
if not aLine: break
lineNum = lineNum + 1
# How likely is it that this is the last line of the file?
if random.uniform(0,lineNum)<1: #译注: 这里是随机的吗?
selected_line = aLine
file_object.close( )
return selected_line
