Dear group,
For instance I have a text that looks like following:
Segment:Page 21
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
.............................
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Segment:Page 22
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
............................
Segment:Page 23
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
............................
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
I have another file with Page numbers that looks like
this:
Page 1
Page 2
......
Page 22
Page 34
Page 200
I can see that Page 22 is existing in my first file.
Now I am trying locate Page 22 segment in first file
and asking my program to read STARTING from
Segment:Page 22 to End of page 22 segment that is a
blank line(empty line) OR Start of another segment
which Segment: Page 23.
Question:
Is there any function where I can specify to python
buit-in function to select specific line (such as
starting from segment: page 22 TO the next new line)
instead of the whole lines until EOF.
e.g.:
a = readlines (From , TO )
I asked a similar question before and that was well
taught by experts, however, I am still confused. Can
any one please help me again.
Thank you.
Kumar
