i want to code a python function, which extracts certain string elements out of a textfile with bibliographical data. The file contains different lines like that:
shakespeare, william: macbeth. novel, second edition, cambridge, 2005
Each line is been separated by a \\n
.
How can i extract these lines into a structure like:
author : shakespeare, william
title : macbeth
usw.
You could do something like this. Every line would have its own dictionary then.
d = {}
s = "shakespeare, william: macbeth. novel, second edition, cambridge, 2005"
data = s.split(".")[0].split(": ")
d["author"] = data[0]
d["title"] = data[1]
print d
#Output
{'title': 'macbeth', 'author': 'shakespeare, william'}
