Google cloud speech to text grammar to narrow results to a number?

I very simply want to pass is a tiny audio clip (8Khz telephony) containing a single digit number, and get back a single digit number as text, narrowed down to a number.
File in > number as text out. Preferably via the python command line API.
The problem is, by default, it recognises things like 1,2,3,4,5 as won,too,free,fore,5 ... no good!
I believe I want what is called a grammar? Or something like Amazon's number slot types it uses in Alexa? I've looked over the cloud speech docs and can't find it. The only thing I could think of is looping over the alternatives given and see if any match an int rather than a word. And if none do, then what?
Thanks.

A.Queue's answer is correct, however, in case others are bitten by the docs:
The link given suggests:
{ "phrases": [ string], }
The python documentation says:
speech_contexts
Optional: A means to provide context to assist the speech recognition.
The python examples show:
language_code='en-US',
max_alternatives=max_alternatives,
profanity_filter=True,
speech_contexts=['Google', 'cloud'],
What actually works is:
speech_contexts=[speech.types.SpeechContext(
phrases=['Google', 'cloud'],
)]
I managed to get this from a Googler on Slack who pointed me to some alternative more comprehensive and accurate documentation. Bookmark that last link for future sanity.

Try adding speechContexts. You can then add a few phrases that you think are most probable.

Python, Returning object class names by a function

I'm new to Python and this is my first question here. Hope any of you guys will be able to help me out.
I'm trying to call values inside an object from an external program. The object that I'm trying to access is given in a class (as i uderstand it), and the name of the class may change according to X, see below:
External programs object and class information
I want to be able to call information from Phase_6 in this case, however it could be Phase_12 in another case. I was considering making a function where i could have the _'Number' as an input. But I can't seem to find any information of how to do such.
I was thinking of something like using +str(X), as I do when plotting. But as it is probably not a string, it doesn't work out.
My proposed code
Ive read that bpy in Blender may be able to replace the name of the class that i want to return, however I'm not sure if it'll work, and I dont want to switch editor :)
Hope you guys can help me out,
Joachim

Found the answer, one could use getattr.
x = 6
result = getattr(g_o, 'phase_'+str(x)).Info.SumMsf.value
Thanks anyway - And I'll work on the pictures

Omniture - python: keyError with authentication

I have been trying to use the omniture module to retrieve data from omniture but I am stuck at the very first step.
I followed the instructions on the readme but when I try to authenticate I receive the following traceback:
enter image description here
any little help will be much appreciated !
Thanks a lot,
Bastien

There's no report_suites key in the dictionary. Don't know what are you trying to find, but the best for you would be either print whole dictionary, or more efficient - print only keys and choose the one you want.
If you don't know what key do you want, printing the whole dictionary may be more useful as the values alone would be useless for you without a way to access them.
Also I think you didn't pass enough arguments to the function, because it seems that the function is missing something, therefore can't return what you need.

How to delete almost duplicate files

Edit 2:
Solved, see my answer waaaaaaay below.
Edit:
After banging my head a few times, I almost did it.
Here's my (not cleaned up, you can tell I was troubleshooting a bunch of stuff) code:
http://pastebin.com/ve4Qkj2K
And here's the problem: It works sometimes and other times not so much. For example, it will work perfectly with some files, then leave one of the longest codes instead of the shortest one, and for others it will delete maybe 2 out of 5 duplicates, leaving 3 behind. If it just performed reliably, I might be able to fix it, but I don't understand the seemingly random behavior. Any ideas?
Original Post:
Just so you know, I'm just beginning with python, and I'm using python 3.3
So here's my problem:
Let's say I have a folder with about 5,000 files in it. Some of these files have very similar names, but different contents and possible different extensions. After a readable name, there is a code, always with a "(" or a "[" (no quotes) before it. The name and code are separated by a space. For example:
something (TZA).blah
something [TZZ].another
hello (YTYRRFEW).extension
something (YJTR).another_ext
I'm trying to only get one of the something's.something, and delete the others. Another fact which may be important is that there are usually more than one code, such as "something (THTG) (FTGRR) [GTGEES!#!].yet_another_random_extension", all separated by spaces. Although it doesn't matter 100%, it would be best to save the one with the least codes.
I made some (very very short) code to get a list of all files:
import glob
files=[]
files=glob.glob("*")
but after this I'm pretty much lost. Any help would be appreciated, even if it's just pointing me in the right direction!

I would suggest creating separate array of bare file names and check the condition if any element exists in any other place by taking array with all indices excluding the current checked in loop iteration.
The
if str_fragment in name
condition simply finds any string fragment in any string-type name. It can be useful as well.

I got it! The version I ended up with works (99%) perfectly. Although it needs to make multiply passes, reading,analyzing, and deleting over 2 thousand files took about 2 seconds on my pitiful, slow notebook. My final version is here:
http://pastebin.com/i7SE1mh6
The only tiny bug is that if the final item in the list has a duplicate, it will leave it there (and no more than 2). That's very simple to manually correct so I didn't bother to fix it (ain't nobody got time fo that and all).
Hope sometime in the future this could actually help somebody other than me.
I didn't get too many answers here, but it WAS a pretty unusual problem, so thanks anyway. See ya.

Parsing a range of integers in a list

I've just began learning Python and I've ran into a small problem.
I need to parse a text file, more specifically an HTML file (but it's syntax is so weird - divs after divs after divs, the result of a Google's 'View as HTML' for a certain PDF i can't seem to extract the text because it has a messy table done in m$ word).
Anyway, I chose a rather low-level approach because i just need the data asap and since I'm beginning to learn Python, I figured learning the basics would do me some good too.
I've got everything done except for a small part in which i need to retrieve a set of integers from a set of divs. Here's an example:
<div style="position:absolute;top:522;left:1020"><nobr>*88</nobr></div>
Now the numbers i want to retrieve all the ones inside <nobr></nobr> (in that case, '588') and, since it's quite a messy file, i have to make sure that what I am getting is correct. To do so, that number inside <nobr></nobr> must be preceded by "left:1020", "left:1024" or "left:1028". This is because of the automatic conversion and the best choice would be to get all the number preceded by left:102[0-] in my opinion.
To do so, I was trying to use:
for o in re.finditer('left:102[0-9]"><nobr>(.*?)</nobr></div>', words[index])
out = o.group(1)
But so far, no such luck... How can I get those numbers?
Thanks in advance,
J.

Don't use regular expressions to parse HTML. BeautifulSoup will make light work of this.
As for your specific problem, it might be that you are missing a colon at the end of the first line:
for o in re.finditer('left:102[0-9]"><nobr>(.*?)</nobr></div>', words[index]):
out = o.group(1)
If this isn't the problem, please post the error you are getting, at what you expect the output to be.
