io - Python reading from non ascii file -
i have text file contains following character: ÿ
when try , read file in i've tried both:
with open (file, "r") myfile: and
with codecs.open(file, encoding='utf-8') myfile: with success. when try read file in string using:
file_string=myfile.read() or
file_string=myfile.readline() i keep getting error:
unicodedecodeerror: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0xff in position 11889: invalid start byte ideally want ignore character or subsitute '' or whitespace
i've come solution. use python2 instead of python3. still can't seem work in python3 though
