Large Data-set Edit | Ideal language?
#2
Personally, I'd look at sed or awk. They were made for exactly this kind of project. It sounds like a one-liner, to be honest.

Python is very capable of performing this. It'd be only a couple of lines of code. It would run significantly slower, however.

If performance is important, sed or awk. If not, Python is fine.
