This seems to be a Pure Way to do it.

    This is exactly what I needed. A pointer in the direction to go for last-segment only file reading. Now I need to look into it and figure out what to extract from it. I was wasking about Reading the last line of a file in a Pure Way.

    Please do not vote any further on this reply above as I just made a mistake in putting correctly the codes (I had put / after code whereas I should have done it before code).. It won't happen again....Thanks:-vnpandey
      Dear Mr. Pandey... It is a very good thing that you accept your mistakes Infact that is the spirit of monks...but please be a little careful too as you can imagine it is very trivial just to put your codes...Well I am sure monks will forgive you but take care next time........o.k.....
      Dear Mr. Pandey... One more thing is that u urself can see instead of getting positive votes on your write-up in nutshell you got negative votes.. (-17 and +6) inspite of a very nice reply just because of one trivial carelessness..Infact I can see that you tried to put your things in codes from your post but perhabs did not bother to look on site how to for rechecking in case of doubt...So u yourself loose points apart form causing inconvienieance to others...As far as mentioning you sources is concerned..(as there is a comment for that) yes it is good to mention if u want it but anyway everybody learns things from some-where and it is always not possible to mention all the sources (as the similar answer to your question was given by me earlier) So I don't mind u not mentioning my names etc... That is perfectly o.k....Any way hapy perling...:-mrt
