Is there anyway for python to consider the values within a string when
entering the data into a dictionary. I know that isn't very clear so here's
an example:
class MyClass(object):
def __init__(self,name="",age=""):
self.name=name
self.age=age
data="Gary,50"
d={0:[MyClass(data)]}
data="Adam,25"
d[0].append(MyClass(data))
The data is coming from a text file working on a line by line basis. I've
just tried and I'm just getting the full string in the first field. That
seems logical, now I don't want it to though!
