Math Groupers, Somebody explain Read & EndOfFile to me, preferably using monosyllables and diagrams. My code looks like this: While[(headline = Read[file,String]) != 10,( statement; statement; ) ]; And it works fine. It reads the lines and processes them and the loop terminates when at EOF. However if I change != 10 to != EndOfFile it fails to run.
