I have a string like "Trump is $ the president of USA % Obama was $ the president of USA % Putin is $ the premier of Russia%"
Here, I want to extract the portions from $...%, which would be "the president of USA", "the president of USA", "the premier of Russia" and would work some post extraction jobs, like I may split them or annotate them and may replace them back to its own position with the edited string. In the end it may look like "Trump is the/DET president/NN of/PREP USA/NN Obama was the/DET president/NN of/PREP USA/NN Putin is the/DET premier/NN of/PREP Russia/NN" I am working around replace and re.sub If any one may kindly suggest. I am using Python2.7.12 on MS-Windows 7 Thanking in Advance -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
