Answer 1

Follow the steps,

1. Split the texts appropriately
2. Make a new csv file
3. Use Python's csv module to add the data into it

Let me know if you are not familiar with this kind of stuff. Then I would be more thorough.

Answer 2

I transformed the file into a row, as mentioned in question

 import re import pandas as pd #read the file from a txt #list of files list_files = ['data1.txt','data2.txt'] for j in list_files: f = open(j, "r") data = f.readlines() # joining the text and removing newline and space string = " ".join(data) string = " ".join(re.sub(r'[\\n]', '', string).split()) string = string.replace(' = ', '|').replace('= ', '|') data = {} list_string = string.split(" ") for i in list_string: k = i.split("|") print(k) data[k[0]] = float(k[1]) f.close() df = pd.DataFrame([data]) df.to_csv(f"{j.split('.txt')[0]}.csv", index=False)
