a="hello | my friends| in | stack | over | flow"

I want to print "my friends" which is between first and second "|" Please help me

Answer 1

You could use string.split function.

>>> a="hello | my friends| in | stack | over | flow"
>>> a.split('|')[1].strip()
'my friends'

a.split('|')[1] prints the element at index 1 from the list which was created by splitting the input according to | .
