how to merge in single list and do sum in python?

Question

my code is:

import sys
import re

from timeit import itertools

import operator

fileName = 'realfile.txt'

test = open(fileName)

for line in test:
total =0        
convert = re.findall(r'[-+]?\d*\.\d+|\d+', line)
result = map(int, convert)  
total = result
print total    

i got console output as :

i tried using operator , reduce(lamda) function and so on but couldn't solve. All i want is to merge those different lists into single list and do sum. Any help would be appreciated.

Answer 1

You can simply do

result = sum(map(int, convert))  
total = result+total

total=0 should be out of loop .Take it before for line in

Answer 2

Keep a running total before you start the loop, then add each line's contents to that total:

total = 0
for line in test:
    convert = re.findall(r'[-+]?\d*\.\d+|\d+', line)
    result = map(int, convert)
    total += sum(result)

print total

Answer 3

result = []
for line in test:
    convert = re.findall(r'[-+]?\d*\.\d+|\d+', line)
    result = result + map(int, convert)
print result
print sum(result)

map return a list, keep adding this list in result list, At last you will have result list with all required integer. Then sum it.
