Hi everybody
I am searching for a possibility, to find out, what the index for a certain lettyer in a string is. My example:
for x in text: if x == ' ': list = text[: # There I need the index of the space the program found during the loop...
Is there and possibility to find the index of the space??? Thanks for any help! Fred
Perhaps you need something at a higher level (though you could use text.find(" ") for the first occurrence). I suspect you might want split(). Fred, meet split(). split(), meet Fred.
>>> s = "The quick brown python swallows the lazy mongoose" >>> s.split() ['The', 'quick', 'brown', 'python', 'swallows', 'the', 'lazy', 'mongoose'] >>> s.split(None) ['The', 'quick', 'brown', 'python', 'swallows', 'the', 'lazy', 'mongoose'] >>> s.split(None, 3) ['The', 'quick', 'brown', 'python swallows the lazy mongoose'] >>> s.split(None, 1) ['The', 'quick brown python swallows the lazy mongoose'] >>>
