A RAM error of big array
- by flint
I have a big file, more than 400M. In that file, there are 13496*13496 number, means 13496 rows and 13496 cols. I want to read them to a array.
This is my code:
_L1 = [[0 for col in range(13496)] for row in range(13496)]
_L1file = open('distanceCMD.function.txt')
while (i<13496):
print "i="+str(i)
_strlf = _L1file.readline()
_strlf = _strlf.split('\t')
_strlf = _strlf[:-1]
_L1[i] = _strlf
i += 1
_L1file.close()
And this is my error massage:
MemoryError:
File "D:\research\space-function\ART3.py", line 30, in <module>
_strlf = _strlf.split('\t')
