Once I write the corresponding course number I should get the corresponding answer, instead I get everything.
You have three dictionaries (you should really only have one due to the repetition of the course code). However, based on what you currently have you need ensure that the course code exists in all three dictionaries.
def main():
# Initialize dictionaries
rooms = { 'CS101':3004, 'CS102':4501, 'CS103':6755,
'NT110':1244, 'CM241':1411}
instructors = {'CS101':'Haynes', 'CS102':'Alvarado',
'CS103':'Rich', 'NT110':'Burke',
'CM241':'Lee'}
times = {'CS101':'8:00 am', 'CS102':'9:00 am',
'CS103':'10:00 am', 'NT110':'11:00 am',
'CM241':'12:00 pm'}
course = input('Enter a course number: ' )
if course in rooms and course in times and course in instructors:
print('The details for course', course, 'are:')
print('Room:', rooms[course])
print('Instructor:', instructors[course])
print('Time:', times[course])
else:
print('Invalid course')
# Call the main function.
main()
A better construct could be:
def main():
courses = {'CS101': {'room': 3004, 'instructor': 'Haynes', 'time': '8:00 am'},
'CS102': {'room': 4501, 'instructor': 'Alvarado', 'time': '9:00 am'},
'CS103': {'room': 6755, 'instructor': 'Rich', 'time': '10:00 am'},
'NT110': {'room': 1244, 'instructor': 'Burke', 'time': '11:00 am'},
'CM241': {'room': 1411, 'instructor': 'Lee', 'time': '12:00 am'}}
course = input('Enter a course number: ')
if cd := courses.get(course):
print('The details for course', course, 'are:')
print('Room: {}\nInstructor: {}\nTime: {}'.format(*cd.values()))
else:
print('Invalid course')
# Call the main function.
main()
What stopping you replicate logic of intsructor as you done correctly. do same for rest.
def main():
# Initialize dictionaries
rooms = { 'CS101':3004, 'CS102':4501, 'CS103':6755,
'NT110':1244, 'CM241':1411}
instructors = {'CS101':'Haynes', 'CS102':'Alvarado',
'CS103':'Rich', 'NT110':'Burke',
'CM241':'Lee'}
times = {'CS101':'8:00 am', 'CS102':'9:00 am',
'CS103':'10:00 am', 'NT110':'11:00 am',
'CM241':'12:00 pm'}
course = input('Enter a course number:' )
if course not in rooms:
print(course, 'is an invalid course number.')
else:
print('The details for course', course, 'are:')
print('Room:', rooms[course])
print('Instructor:', instructors[course])
print('Time:', times[course])
# Call the main function.
main()
Sample outputs #
Enter a course number:CS101
The details for course CS101 are:
Room: 3004
Instructor: Haynes
Time: 8:00 am
The problem is that when you are trying to print out the dictionary, you are not accessing the value and instead trying to print out the whole dictionary in some cases.
Here's how you can fix this:
def main():
# Initialize dictionaries
rooms = {'CS101': 3004, 'CS102': 4501, 'CS103': 6755, 'NT110': 1244, 'CM241': 1411}
instructors = {'CS101': 'Haynes', 'CS102': 'Alvarado', 'CS103': 'Rich', 'NT110': 'Burke', 'CM241': 'Lee'}
times = {'CS101': '8:00 am', 'CS102': '9:00 am', 'CS103': '10:00 am', 'NT110': '11:00 am', 'CM241': '12:00 pm'}
course = input('Enter a course number:')
if course not in rooms:
print(course, 'is an invalid course number.')
else if course not in instructors:
print(course, 'is an invalid course number.')
else if course not in times:
print(course, 'is an invalid course number.')
else:
print('The details for course', course, 'are:')
print('Room:', rooms[course])
print('Instructor:', instructors[course])
print('Time:', times[course])
main()
Hope this helps!

The code worked with me... How are you running it?
Your comparison is looking for the number as a string. If you use the standard input (eg, running in a terminal), then it will read it in as a string. But, if you pass in an integer somehow, then it won't match.

I have bellow text( get repsond from Zebra):

AUTO SER COMM. MODE
<~> 7EH CONTROL CHAR
<^> 5EH COMMAND CHAR
<,> 2CH DELIM. CHAR
ZPL II ZPL MODE
NO MOTION MEDIA POWER UP
FEED
I want to get values for each settings via python.
Expect to get something like a dict {'DARKNESS':30,'PRINT SPEED':'4 IPS' ....}
Normally, expect code is
for line in lines:
x=line.split(' ')
the_value=x[0]
the_setting=x[1]
but it's without fixed blankspace.
I don't have good idea to split it.
Using split() function isn't a good choose here.
The value also have blankspace as well.
I was stuck here.
Any idea?
Using my suggestion in combination with yours, I got this to work (I made a txt file with your examples in it):
import re
file = open('untitled.txt','r')
my_dict = {}
for line in file:
x,y = re.split(r'\s{4,}',line.strip())
my_dict[y] = x
This is the output of the dictionary I made with this code:
{'DARKNESS': '30.0', 'PRINT SPEED': '4 IPS', 'TEAR OFF': '+000', 'PRINT MODE': 'TEAR OFF', 'MEDIA TYPE': 'GAP/NOTCH', 'SENSOR TYPE': 'WEB', 'SENSOR SELECT': 'MANUAL', 'PRINT METHOD': 'THERMAL-TRANS.', 'PRINT WIDTH': '480', 'LABEL LENGTH': '0387', 'MAXIMUM LENGTH': '39.0IN 975MM', 'USB COMM.': 'CONNECTED', 'PARALLEL COMM.': 'BIDIRECTIONAL', 'BAUD': '9600', 'DATA BITS': '8 BITS', 'PARITY': 'NONE', 'HOST HANDSHAKE': 'DTR & XON/XOFF', 'PROTOCOL': 'NONE', 'SER COMM. MODE': 'AUTO', 'CONTROL CHAR': '<~> 7EH', 'COMMAND CHAR': '<^> 5EH', 'DELIM. CHAR': '<,> 2CH', 'ZPL MODE': 'ZPL II', 'MEDIA POWER UP': 'NO MOTION'}
well, you can do the following
file=open('yourfile','r').read().split('\n')
lines=[line.split(' ') for line in file]
items=[[i.replace(' ','') for i in item if i!=''] for item in lines]
output_dict={i[0]:i[1] for i in items if i}
I used 3 main features of python here the one line loop
loop=[dosomething(item) for item in array if item=='somevalue'] #if statement is not necessary
,the replace() function
print 'Hello You'.replace('You','world') # outputs hello world
and the split() function
print 'hello,world'.split(',') # outputs ['hello',world]
you can find more documentation here: python string methods
Thanks #TheDetective , you answer is useful.
Now better.

Since I've already done it, you might as well have my answer too.
The two items of information occupy fixed places on each line. Therefore, string slicing can be used to pick them from lines. I omit the last line because there is no information about its field name.
>>> result = {}
>>> with open('temp.txt') as temp:
... for line in temp.readlines():
... if line.startswith('FEED'):
... break
... result[line[20:].strip()] = line[:20].strip()

Use the python split function
https://www.tutorialspoint.com/python/string_split.htm
You can iterate over the lines using split('\n')
and then you can use regex to split the rest.
In your accepted answer it only splits when the whitespace between the key and value is 4 or bigger. This can give buggs when it is smaller. My solution normally fixes this.
dict = {}
for line in input.split('\n'):
# Split the line in the correct parts
myArray = re.findall('(^.{20})(.*)', line.lstrip().rstrip())
# Check that you have found both key and value
if len(myArray) > 0:
myTupple = myArray[0]
dict[myTupple[1].rstrip()] = myTupple[0].rstrip()
Im trying to learn html scraping for a project, I'm using python and lxml. I've been successful so far in getting the data I needed but now I have another problem. The site that I'm scraping from (op.gg) when you scroll down it adds new tables with more information. When I run my script (below) it only gets the first 50 entries and nothing more. My question is how can I get at least the first 200 names on the page or if it is even possible.
from lxml import html
import requests
page = requests.get('https://na.op.gg/ranking/ladder/')
tree = html.fromstring(page.content)
names = tree.xpath('//td[#class="SummonerName Cell"]/a/text()')
print (names)
Borrow the idea from Pedro, https://na.op.gg/ranking/ajax2/ladders/start=number will give you 50 records start from number, for example:
https://na.op.gg/ranking/ajax2/ladders/start=0 get (1-50),
https://na.op.gg/ranking/ajax2/ladders/start=50 get (51-100),
https://na.op.gg/ranking/ajax2/ladders/start=100 get (101-150),
https://na.op.gg/ranking/ajax2/ladders/start=150 get (151-200),
etc....
After that you could change your scrap code, as the page is different as your original one, suppose you want get first 200 names, here is the amended code:
from lxml import html
import requests
start_url = 'https://na.op.gg/ranking/ajax2/ladders/start='
names_200 = list()
for i in [0,50,100,150]:
dest_url = start_url + str(i)
page = requests.get(dest_url)
tree = html.fromstring(page.content)
names_50 = tree.xpath('//a[not(#target) and not(#onclick)]/text()')
names_200.extend(names_50)
print names_200
print len(names_200)

BTW, you could expand it based on your requirement.
I am importing a large csv file to ETL into a database, and the date format that was originally set in the csv file looks like 4/22/2016 1:00:00 PM. Each date is part of a larger list that might have non-date type items in it. for example:
v = ['4/29/2016 8:25:58 AM', '5/25/2016 2:22:22 PM', 'True', 'Foo', 1]
I would like to reformat every date (if present in the list) with the correct MySQL format of
%m-%d-%Y %I:%M:%S
How would i do this with a list comprehension? my code is not working for obvious reasons but i'm not sure where to go from here. I need to retain the index that the date is found in v.
from datetime import datetime, date, time
v = ['4/29/2016 8:25:58 AM', '5/25/2016 2:22:22 PM', 'True', 'Foo', 1]
def fixdate(_params):
tstamp = datetime.strptime(_params, "%m/%d/%Y %I:%M:%S %p")
newtstamp = date.strftime(tstamp, "%m-%d-%Y %I:%M:%S")
replace = { _params: newtstamp }
l = [replace.get(x, x) for x in _params]
print l
fixdate(v)
Please check this. Comments inline with code.
