You should try with Regular Expressions or if it is something like xml there
is for sure a library you can you to parse it ...
anyway you can try something simpler like this:
elem_dic=dict()
for line in open(str(sys.argv[1])):
line_splitted=line.split()
for item in line_splitted:
item_splitted=item.split("=")
if len(item_splitted)>1:
elem_dic[item_splitted[0]]=item_splitted[1]
... then you have to retrieve from the dict the items you need, for example,
with the line you posted you obtain these items splitted:
['<element']
['tag', '"300a,0014"']
['vr', '"CS"']
['vm', '"1"']
['len', '"4"']
['name', '"DoseReferenceStructureType">SITE</element>']
and elem_dic will contain the last five, with the keys
'tag','vr','vm','len','name' and teh values 300a,0014 etc etc
i.e. this:
{'vr': '"CS"', 'tag': '"300a,0014"', 'vm': '"1"', 'len': '"4"', 'name':
'"DoseReferenceStructureType">SITE</element>'}
