FileWriteOrEdit
Write or edit files by specifying the percentage of lines changed, using search/replace blocks for minor edits or full content for major changes.
Instructions
Writes or edits a file based on the percentage of changes.
Use absolute path only (~ allowed).
First write down percentage of lines that need to be replaced in the file (between 0-100) in percentage_to_change
percentage_to_change should be low if mostly new code is to be added. It should be high if a lot of things are to be replaced.
If percentage_to_change > 50, provide full file content in text_or_search_replace_blocks
If percentage_to_change <= 50, text_or_search_replace_blocks should be search/replace blocks.
Instructions for editing files.
Example
Input file
import numpy as np
from impls import impl1, impl2
def hello():
"print a greeting"
print("hello")
def call_hello():
"call hello"
hello()
print("Called")
impl1()
hello()
impl2()
Edit format on the input file
<<<<<<< SEARCH

>>>>>>> REPLACESEARCH/REPLACE block Rules:
Every "<<<<<<< SEARCH" section must EXACTLY MATCH the existing file content, character for character, including all comments, docstrings, whitespaces, etc.
Including multiple unique SEARCH/REPLACE blocks if needed. Include enough and only enough lines in each SEARCH section to uniquely match each set of lines that need to change.
Keep SEARCH/REPLACE blocks concise. Break large SEARCH/REPLACE blocks into a series of smaller blocks that each change a small portion of the file. Include just the changing lines, and a few surrounding lines (0-3 lines) if needed for uniqueness. Other than for uniqueness, avoid including those lines which do not change in search (and replace) blocks. Target 0-3 non trivial extra lines per block.
Preserve leading spaces and indentations in both SEARCH and REPLACE blocks.
