Just for fun, I'm working on a script to count the number of lines in
source files. Some lines are auto-generated (by the IDE) and shouldn't be
counted. The auto-generated part of files start with "Begin VB.Form" and
end with "End" (first thing on the line). The "End" keyword may appear
inside the auto-generated part, but not at the beginning of the line.
I imagine having a flag variable to tell whether you're inside the
auto-generated part, but I wasn't able to figure out exactly how. Here's
the function, without the ability to skip auto-generated code:
# Count the lines of source code in the file def count_lines(f):
file = open(f, 'r')
rows = 0
for line in file:
rows = rows + 1
return rows
How would you modify this to exclude lines between "Begin VB.Form" and
"End" as described above?
Introduce the flag and look up the docs for the `startswith()` method on
strings.
