[split] Check presence of a file

[pascale]

Snippsat,
Thank you so much, it works

#! bash/bin/python3  
def read_sensor(sensorID):  
    tempfile = open("/sys/bus/w1/devices/"+ sensorID +"/w1_slave")
    thetext = tempfile.read()
    tempfile.close()
    tempdata = thetext.split("\n") [1].split(" ")[9]
    temperature = float(tempdata[2:])
    temp_sensor = temperature / 1000
    return (temp_sensor)

And:

from mySensorModule import read_sensor
from mySensors import sensorsID
import time

# accessing a dictionary: dict_name[key] = value
sID1 = sensorsID['solar_panel']
sID2 = sensorsID['cyl_bottom']
x = 5
while 1:
    read_sensor(sID1) + x > read_sensor(sID2)
    print("it's Hot!")
    time.sleep(1)
else:
    print("Got it wrong again Dad")

prints "it's hot"
Thank you!!
I can see why you are administrator
The next step is GPIO
