Hi all, I have a .txt file with information like this
11111 0
11112 1
11113 2
11114 3
11115 4
11116 5
11121 6
11122 7
…
66664 zzgl
66665 zzz
66666 zzzz
What I have to do:
- read the file
- return a map like this
%{
“11111” => “0”
“11112” => “1”
“11113” => “2”
…
“66664” => “zzgl”
“66665” => “zzz”
“66666” => “zzzz”
}
Here’s what I have tried
def get_map(file_name) do
{:ok, file} = File.read(file_name)
# create a new map
result_map = %{}
# create a map with key = first word of the line and value = second word of the line
file
|> String.split("\n")
|> Enum.map(fn line -> String.split(line, " ") end)
|> Enum.reduce(result_map, fn [key, value], acc -> Map.put(acc, key, value) end)
end
I got something returned but with errors.

}
I don’t really understand what I’ve done wrong, why does the map start from the middle of the file?
what do I have to change to make it work?

There’s probably a newline at the end of the file that you didn’t account for.
Try
String.trim()beforeString.split("\n"), or doString.split("\n", trim: true).P.S. Posting this during Advent of Code is fortunate timing

I’d do something like this. You might have to
Stream.rejectempty lines or so…kimc0de
String.split("\n", trim: true)works like a charm! thank youu!kimc0de
This one works too!
