如何从Python3模块中提取特定属性？

Question

Im importing from the pycountries module and trying to just print out a list of all the listed countries but I can figure it out. My test code is:

from pycountry import countries

for num in range(0,len(countries)):
    print(countries[num])

Which spits out a list of all the country objects (I'll list one for example).

Country(alpha_2='AO', alpha_3='AGO', name='Angola', numeric='024', official_name='Republic of Angola')

I've tried looking at listed dir methods and tried things like:

print(countries[num][name])

What am I doing wrong? How to I pull specific things like the name or the alpha_2 from the object.

Thanks for any help and sorry for the probably stupid question.

Answer 1

name , alpha_2 , etc. are stored as an object attribute:

You can pull it out with :

<country object>.alpha_2

or

<country object>.name

You can cycle through all the countries with a loop:

for country in countries:
    print(country.name)
>>>"Afghanistan"
>>>....
