Hi, I have just started learning python.I need to parse an XML file and present the contents in a particular format.The format is called as "ini" file.I have written some code.A section of the format needs the data to be present in format as given below:
[Services] supported=0x10,0x1A,0x3B,0x20,0x27,0x28,0x34,0x36,0x3E,0xA2,0xA5,0x2D, 0x22,0xA9,0x04,0xAA,0xAE My code for this section parses the xml file and gives : [Services] Supported=['0x3e', '0x28', '0x3b', '0x22', '0x20', '0x27', '0xaa', '0x10', '0xae', '0x34', '0x36', '0x2d', '0xa9', '0xa5', '0x4', '0xa2', '0x1a'] {forget the numericals matching}.As you can see there are single quotes around numericals ,which is not desired .I think the problem lies in me using a list for storing and later printing out values.I have attached few lines of code,not sure how clear it can be to you: for l in range(0,len(ser_par), 1): if ser_par[l].getAttribute('Semantics')==u'serviceId': if tag_exists(ser_par[l].childNodes,'VALUE'): val = ser_par[l].getElementsByTagName('VALUE') value = str(val[0].getAttribute('value')) valu = hex(int(value)) rval.append(valu) ser_par_num = ser_par_num + 1 prim_num = prim_num + 1 service_num = service_num + 1 variant_num = variant_num + 1 ser = list(set(rval)) print "\n[Services]" print "Supported="+str(ser) How can i get rid of those single quotes.
