从python中的文件中提取名称

Question

I'm dealing with a file where I want to extract the names and append them to a list. The names are formatted like this:

"Firstname LastnameAnotherfirstname Anotherlastname" etc...

I'm not an experienced programmer, therefore, I haven't got a lot of regex lingo in the back of my head so a little help would be much appreciated!

Answer 1

Find name by Upper Case

import re

file_open = open('file_name.txt').read()
value = re.findall('[A-Z][a-z]*', file_open)
print(value)

You get a list of name.

Answer 2

Try like this

import re
regex = r"[A-Z][a-z]*\ [A-Z][a-z]*"
test_str = "Firstname LastnameAnotherfirstname Anotherlastname"
output = re.findall(regex, test_str)
print output
