I read a list of lists from a txt file and I got a list like this:
["[21049090, 'AARTIIND22AUGFUT', 'AARTIIND', 850, 1793]", "[21049346, 'ABB22AUGFUT', 'ABB', 250, 3329]"]
Each list item in this list is a str type which is a problem.
it should be like this:
[[21049090, 'AARTIIND22AUGFUT', 'AARTIIND', 850, 1793], [21049346, 'ABB22AUGFUT', 'ABB', 250, 3329]]
How do I do that?
Consider using literal_eval
:
from ast import literal_eval
txt = ["[21049090, 'AARTIIND22AUGFUT', 'AARTIIND', 850, 1793]", "[21049346, 'ABB22AUGFUT', 'ABB', 250, 3329]"]
result = [literal_eval(i) for i in txt]
print(result)
Output:
[[21049090, 'AARTIIND22AUGFUT', 'AARTIIND', 850, 1793], [21049346, 'ABB22AUGFUT', 'ABB', 250, 3329]]
Edit :
Or eval()
. Refer to Tim Biegeleisen's answer.
Using the eval()
function along with a list comprehension we can try:
inp = ["[21049090, 'AARTIIND22AUGFUT', 'AARTIIND', 850, 1793]", "[21049346, 'ABB22AUGFUT', 'ABB', 250, 3329]"]
output = [eval(x) for x in inp]
print(output)
This prints:
[
[21049090, 'AARTIIND22AUGFUT', 'AARTIIND', 850, 1793],
[21049346, 'ABB22AUGFUT', 'ABB', 250, 3329]
]
Here is how I will solve it.
from typing import List
def integer_converter(var: str):
try:
# I used float here in case you have any float in those strs
return float(var)
except ValueError:
# if ValueError, then var is a str and cannot be converted. in this case, return str var
return var
def clear_input(raw_input: List[str]) -> List:
raw_input = [x.replace('[','').replace(']','').replace("'",'').replace(' ','').split(',') for x in raw_input]
raw_input = [[integer_converter(x) for x in sublist] for sublist in raw_input]
return raw_input
test = ["[21049090, 'AARTIIND22AUGFUT', 'AARTIIND', 850, 1793]", "[21049346, 'ABB22AUGFUT', 'ABB', 250, 3329]"]
test = clear_input(test)
print(test)
