HI there!!!
I have a file like this:
12345-2 ppppp
12389-4 iiiii
I want to read this file and organize in different way: The second number
present after "-" mean the times are ripetuted the elements..so in the
example In the end I want to have this result
12345-1 ppppp
12345-2 ppppp
12389-1 iiiii
12389-2iiiii
12389-3iiiii
12389-4iiiii
Someone have a suggestion how to do this simple task..
Untested, but this should work. Adding error checking is left up to you.
f = open('file.txt', 'r')
# each line looks like:
# ddddd-d ccc...
# where d is a digit and c is any non-space character.
for line in f:
head, tail = line.split(' ')
head, num = head.split('-')
num = int(num)
for i in range(1, num+1):
print "%s-%s %s" % (head, i, tail)
f.close()
