xml - Python: How do I read and parse a unicode utf-8 text file? -
I am exporting UTF-8 text from ext2 and I want to parse the incoming data for reading and parsing I am I have read all the online information, for example:
txtFile = codecs.open ('halout.txt', 'r', 'utf-8')) for line in TxtFile: Print repr (line)
The error I am getting is:
Unicodecode Error: 'utf8' can not decode byte 0xff in codec condition 0: unexpected Code Byte
Seeing text file in hex editor, the first value is also tried by FFFE:
txtFile.seek (2)
right after the 'open', but this is just a different error Causes.
edit this one
, from coments, it is a utf-16 bom
codecs.open ('foo.txt', 'r
