Question

i post from my original code,

crystal = open('vmises.dat','r')
crystalincrement  = pickle.load(crystal)
crystaldir = pickle.load(crystal)
crystalface = pickle.load(crystal)
crystal.close()

Error is,

crystalincrement  = pickle.load(crystal)

TypeError: ‘str’ does not support the buffer interface

i use python V 3.2

The question was edited after I originally posted this and it was accepted. The answer to the updated question is to open the file in binary mode:

crystal = open('vmises.dat', 'rb')

Answer to original, pre-edit question:

Well, data is a string. The object you need to work on is a.

a = open('data.txt','r')
b = pickle.load(a) 
c = pickle.load(a)
d = pickle.load(a)
a.close()

For pickle info, see the Python Wiki or Python for Kids.
