Python One Line With Statement

<div class="ast-oembed-container"><iframe title="Python One Line With Statement" width="1400" height="788" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/akQ9cjKBaE8?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe></div>

<p>The <code><a href="https://docs.python.org/2.5/whatsnew/pep-343.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" title="https://docs.python.org/2.5/whatsnew/pep-343.html">with</a></code> statement replaces former <code>try...finally</code> blocks in Python. It ensures that clean-up code is executed. For example, it closes open files before leaving the block. Consider this code example (assuming this code is stored in a file named <code>'code.py'</code>):</p>
<pre class="EnlighterJSRAW" data-enlighter-language="generic" data-enlighter-theme="" data-enlighter-highlight="" data-enlighter-linenumbers="" data-enlighter-lineoffset="" data-enlighter-title="" data-enlighter-group="">with open('code.py') as code: print(code.read())
</pre>
<p>The output of this code would be the code itself (for nerds: <a href="https://blog.finxter.com/python-quine/" title="Python One Line Quine" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">a piece of code that generates itself is called a <strong><em>Quine</em></strong></a>): </p>
<pre class="EnlighterJSRAW" data-enlighter-language="generic" data-enlighter-theme="" data-enlighter-highlight="" data-enlighter-linenumbers="" data-enlighter-lineoffset="" data-enlighter-title="" data-enlighter-group="">''' OUTPUT
with open('code.py') as code: print(code.read()) '''</pre>
<p>No matter what goes wrong inside the <code>with</code> block, Python will close the open file before moving on in the code. This way, you don’t need to enclose the code with a <code>try...except</code> statement. </p>
<h2>Single Expression ‘With’ Statement in One Line</h2>

<p><strong>Problem</strong>: Can you write the <code>with</code> statement in a single line of code?</p>
<p><strong>Solution</strong>: Yes, you can write the <code>with</code> statement in a single line of code if the loop body consists only of one statement:</p>
<pre class="EnlighterJSRAW" data-enlighter-language="generic" data-enlighter-theme="" data-enlighter-highlight="" data-enlighter-linenumbers="" data-enlighter-lineoffset="" data-enlighter-title="" data-enlighter-group="">with open('code.py') as code: print(code.read())</pre>
<p>In general, you can write any indentation block (like <code><a href="https://blog.finxter.com/if-then-else-in-one-line-python/" title="If-Then-Else in One Line Python [Video + Interactive Code Shell]">if</a></code> statements, <code>with</code> environments, or <code><a href="https://blog.finxter.com/python-one-line-while-loop-a-simple-tutorial/" title="Python One Line While Loop [A Simple Tutorial]">while</a></code> loops) in a single line of code if the body consists of only one statement. </p>
<p><em><strong>Exercise</strong>: The following interactive code throws an error if you run it. Fix the bug and run the correct code!</em></p>
<p> <iframe height="400px" width="100%" src="https://repl.it/@finxter/ClientsideGrownBrace?lite=true" scrolling="no" frameborder="no" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="true" sandbox="allow-forms allow-pointer-lock allow-popups allow-same-origin allow-scripts allow-modals"></iframe> </p>
<h2>Multi Expression ‘With’ Statement in One Line</h2>
<p>If the body consists of multiple statements, you can use a semicolon between the different statements:</p>
<pre class="EnlighterJSRAW" data-enlighter-language="generic" data-enlighter-theme="" data-enlighter-highlight="" data-enlighter-linenumbers="" data-enlighter-lineoffset="" data-enlighter-title="" data-enlighter-group="">with open('code.py') as code: print('The code:') print(code.read())</pre>
<p>The previous code block becomes:</p>
<pre class="EnlighterJSRAW" data-enlighter-language="generic" data-enlighter-theme="" data-enlighter-highlight="" data-enlighter-linenumbers="" data-enlighter-lineoffset="" data-enlighter-title="" data-enlighter-group="">with open('code.py') as code: print('The code:'); print(code.read())</pre>
<p>Note that in this particular instance, the semantics actually change because the code reads its own source file! But in all other cases, the semantics remain the same. </p>
<p>As soon as you have nested blocks like a <code>for</code> <a href="https://blog.finxter.com/python-loops/" title="Python Loops" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">loop </a>inside a <code>with</code> block, you cannot use this approach anymore because the code would become ambiguous. Believe it or not but the indentation serves a real purpose in Python! <img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/12.0.0-1/72x72/1f609.png" alt="?" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /></p>
<h2>Nested Indentation Blocks in a One-Line ‘With’ Statement</h2>
<p>If you know the <a href="https://blog.finxter.com/subscribe/" title="Subscribe" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Finxter tutorials</a>, you also know that I seldomly conclude with such a statement <em>“XYZ is impossible”</em> because in most cases, it isn’t. If you’re in doubt whether you can compress an algorithm into a <a href="https://pythononeliners.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" title="https://pythononeliners.com/">single line of code</a>—don’t. You can compress all algorithms into a single line!</p>
<p>In most cases, you can avoid nested blocks by using<a href="https://blog.finxter.com/list-comprehension/" title="List Comprehension in Python — A Helpful Illustrated Guide" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> list comprehension</a> (rather than a <a href="https://blog.finxter.com/python-one-line-for-loop-a-simple-tutorial/" title="Python One Line For Loop [A Simple Tutorial]" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><code>for</code> loop</a>) or the<a href="https://blog.finxter.com/python-one-line-ternary/" title="Python One Line Ternary" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> ternary operator</a> (rather than an <code>if</code> block). </p>
<p>Consider the following example with a <code>for</code> loop inside a <code>with</code> block:</p>
<pre class="EnlighterJSRAW" data-enlighter-language="generic" data-enlighter-theme="" data-enlighter-highlight="" data-enlighter-linenumbers="" data-enlighter-lineoffset="" data-enlighter-title="" data-enlighter-group="">with open('code.py') as code: for i in range(10): print(code.read())</pre>
<p><strong>Problem</strong>: One-Linerize a nested with block!</p>
<p><strong>Wrong Solution</strong>: Write it into a single line:</p>
<div class="wp-block-image">
<figure class="aligncenter size-large is-resized"><img src="https://blog.finxter.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/image-32.png" alt="Syntax Error With Statement Single Line" class="wp-image-11439" width="641" height="236" srcset="https://blog.finxter.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/image-32.png 854w, https://blog.finxter.com/wp-content/uplo...00x110.png 300w, https://blog.finxter.com/wp-content/uplo...68x282.png 768w, https://blog.finxter.com/wp-content/uplo...150x55.png 150w" sizes="(max-width: 641px) 100vw, 641px" /></figure>
</div>
<p><strong>Correct Solution</strong>: Replace the inner for loop with a list comprehension statement!</p>
<pre class="EnlighterJSRAW" data-enlighter-language="generic" data-enlighter-theme="" data-enlighter-highlight="" data-enlighter-linenumbers="" data-enlighter-lineoffset="" data-enlighter-title="" data-enlighter-group="">with open('code.py') as code: [print(code.read()) for i in range(10)]</pre>
<p>While this code runs and solves the problem, please note that the chosen example does not make a lot of sense. The file is read only once—even if you place it into a for loop. The reason is that the file reader is done reading the file after the first iteration. In subsequent iterations it only reads the remaining characters (there aren’t any) so the output is not 10x only 1x the file contents. </p>
<h2>Where to Go From Here?</h2>
