I wrote a program to search the text file, it seems fine when I search another item with its record number in increasing order, but when I search in decreasing order, it doesn't run fine, what's the problem?
The code is:
infile=open("inventory.txt","r")
while(True):
searching=str(input("Please enter Record number:"))
lineCount=0 #counting which line the program going to start display
for line in infile:
lineCount+=1
if searching==line.rstrip():
break
itemname=infile.readline()
print("Item name: ",itemname,end="")
while searching!="":
itemnum=infile.readline()
category=infile.readline()
quantity=infile.readline()
weight=infile.readline()
recipient=infile.readline()
finaldestination=infile.readline()
deliverystatus=infile.readline()
print("Item number: ",itemnum,end="")
print("Category: ",category,end="")
print("Quantity: ",quantity,end="")
print("Weight: ",weight,end="")
print("Recipient: ",recipient,end="")
print("Final destination: ",finaldestination,end="")
print("Delivery status: ",deliverystatus)
break
cont=str(input("Do you want to search another item? (y/n)"))
if cont.lower()=="y":
continue
elif cont.lower()=="n":
break
else:
print("Please make sure input is vaild.")
break
infile.close()
The result is:
Please enter Record number:1001
