Im trying to do some code in python that reads a text file and picks out the 5 lines with the highest number and prints them
i have an assignment coming up in which i have to code a dice game . its multiplayer random luck with gambling points and etc
one of the things its asking for though is to save the winning players name and their score into a text file and at the end print the five highest scores in the text file with the five players names, ive got the code so that it saves the players name and score along with some text but have absolutely no idea on how to read the whole text file and and pick out lines that have the 5 largest integers and print them
`
name = str(input("Player 1 name"))
name2 = str(input("Player 2 name"))
score = str(input("Player 1 score"))
score2 = str(input("Player 2 score"))
text_file = open("CH30.txt", "r+")
if score > score2:
content = text_file.readlines(30)
if len(content) > 0 :
text_file.write("\n")
text_file.write(name)
text_file.write (" wins with ")
text_file.write (score)
text_file.write (" points")
else:
content = text_file.readlines(30)
if len(content) > 0 :
text_file.write("\n")
text_file.write (name2)
text_file.write (" wins with ")
text_file.write (score2)
text_file.write (" points")
`
the full game is not attached as I'm at my dads house currently and forgot to bring my usb stick any help on how to do this would be much appreciated :)
