I am trying to write a program that takes a text file and interprets each line in chunks by splitting it using the .split method.
I am trying to split up a line that looks like this: 4-Jan-72 followed by a tab and then a float. I want to try and split it so the '-' and tab are gone. I was told to use '\\t'to split the tab but I'm not sure how to use both with one line.
line = rain_file.readline().strip().split("-",'\t')
I currently get this as my error.
line = rain_file.readline().strip().split("-",'\t')
TypeError: 'str' object cannot be interpreted as an integer
Seems like you want something like this,
Input file file.txt
contains,
foo
4-Jan-72 10.5678
bar
Code:
#!/usr/bin/python3
import re
with open('file.txt', 'r') as f:
for line in f:
if re.match(r'\d+-[A-Z][a-z]+-\d+\b', line):
line = re.sub(r'\t.*|-', r'', line)
print(line, end='')
else:
print(line, end='')
Output:
foo
4Jan72
bar
