March Madness Challenge - MMC02

Today I worked a little bit with file handling and string manipulation. The script takes two files as argument, one input and one output file. It reads the input file line by line, capitalize all letters, prints each line and writes then into the output file.

My input file in.txt looked like that:

This is a test for March Madness 2010!

The idea is absolutely cool!

After run the mmc02.py, my out.txt looked like that:

THIS IS A TEST FOR MARCH MADNESS 2010!

THE IDEA IS ABSOLUTELY COOL!

 #! /usr/bin/python

 import os
 import sys

 print '***** MMC02 *****'

 if os.path.isfile(sys.argv[2]):
         os.remove(sys.argv[2])

 try:
         inFile = file(sys.argv[1], 'r')
         outFile = file(sys.argv[2], 'w')
 except:
         inFile = None
         outfile = None

 if inFile and outFile:
         for line in inFile:
                 outFile.write(line.upper())
                 print line.upper()
