I have a text input file with the following content:
input.feature
3 0 1 1 193:1 225:1
2 0 1 1 57:1 1005:1
4 0 1 1 467:1 7:1
5 0 1 1 619:1 259:1
I want to convert it to a binary buffer file. This is my attempt using Python:
in_file = open('input.feature', 'r', buffering=1000)
out_file = io.open('output.buffer', 'wb')
out_byte_array = bytearray(in_file.read())
out_file.write(out_byte_array)
out_file.close()
The output file I get is not a binary file, it's a text file with the same content as input file. What am I doing wrong? I also tried using BytesIO but I couldn't figure out how to write bytesIO content to a binary file. Thanks in advance.
