Python

How do I split a list like I would a string?
I want to extract everything after the word "title".

I thought slicing would work but you can't specify the string

Take string's length and slice after

regex

Its actually a dictionary element

Iterate through the list, check for "title" on each iteration, once you do use the found index to get everything after it.

Or use the join method and then just get the relevant shet as a string, then split it again lol

string.substring(string.indexof("title"), string.length);

WTF is this

your_list = ['one', 'two', 'title', 'three', 'four']
extracted_items = []
reached_title = False

for item in your_list:
if reached_title:
extracted_items.append(item)
elif item == 'title':
reached_title = True

print(extracted_items)

This will print out everything in the list after 'title' ['three', 'four']

Make it into a function and it should get the job done

try:
mylist = ["dog", "title", "foo", "bar"]
newlist = mylist[mylist.index("title")+1:]
except ValueError:
print("Could not find 'title' in the list.")

newlist will now contain:
['foo', 'bar']
Is that what you wanted?

the_list[the_list.index("title")+1:]
Don't listen to these other rooty poots

Dang. I did this one which is much longer, but readable so that's cool. Yours are better though

Forgot tags. Also, I didn't mean to put mylist into the "try ... except" block.
mylist = ["dog", "title", "foo", "bar"]
try:
newlist = mylist[mylist.index("title")+1:]
except ValueError:
print("Could not find 'title' in the list.")

It said could not find title in the list

Beautiful.
Why don't you paste your list in. Are you saying the word "title" is in the list but not necessarily by itself as an element?

Look at my screenshot. At the end of the second line is title

That's a key in a dictionary embedded as an element in a list

Looks like you're dealing with a dictionary not a list dude.

I said it was a dictionary element.

I typed print(mylist["Title"]) and it says "list indices must be integers or slices, not str"

So your saying I should KMS? Thats why this is fucking me in the a hole, I don't know whether its a list or dictionary.

There is always a way

the_data = {"a":"b", "c":"d", "Title":"Molecular bullshit", "volume": ""}
import json
json.dumps(the_data).split("Title")[1]
'": "Molecular bullshit", "volume": ""}'

When you say you "need everything after Title" what are you asking for exactly? You have a list of dictionaries. Each dictionary in your list has a title. You could get the first one like so:
the_data[0]["Title"]
And you would get that title. Is that what you're looking for?

You get all the titles like this:
for d in data:
print(d["Title"])

To get the keys and items for each dictionary, do this:
for d in data:
for k in d.keys():
print(k, d[k])

You win one hilarious webm

Link to thread if it doesn't work

Congrats buddy. Enough of us retards put together we'd be dangerous haha

Perhaps I will use this to study the genetics of weaponized autism

Cool man. If you have any more questions, post them in this thread. I've been doing this Python thing for a while and I'm feeling helpful tonight. Though I am about to step out for 30 minutes or so.

Why Can't I use [0:1]["Title"]?

I just typed: print(read[0]["Title"]+read[1]["Title"]) but if I want to print lots of data, that won't be very efficient.
