I have a txt file with multiple strings on each line as below:
Hamburger: Ground Beef, Onion, Tomato, Bread, Ketchup
Pesto_Chicken: Chicken, Peppers, Pasta, Pesto
Surf_and_Turf: Steak, Fish
I'd like to read it into my program and create a list for each line. Ideally using the first word of each line (ie Hamburger, etc.) as the list name, but that's not critical. I just need to get each line into its own list. So far I can read it in and print to the console, but not sure how to store as a list??
filepath = 'recipes.txt'
with open(filepath) as fp:
line = fp.readline()
cnt = 1
while line:
print("Line {}: {}".format(cnt, line.strip()))
line = fp.readline()
cnt += 1
parts = line.split(':')
food_list = parts[1].split(',')
dict
foods = {} # declare a dict
with open('recipes.txt') as file:
for line in file:
parts = line.split(':')
food_type = parts[0]
food_list = parts[1].split(',')
foods[food_type] = food_list
give a try to the split() method which does exactly what you need.
Get the first word (as title):
parts = line.split(":")
title = parts[0]
then the other words as a list:
words_list = parts[1].split(", ")
