Uhm, "string" and "non-string" are just that, words within the string. Here
shall I dumb it down for you?
string = "yes text1 yes text2 yes text3 no text4 yes text5+more Text yes
text6 no text7 yes text8"
It doesn't matter what is in the string, I want to be able to know exactly
how many "yes"'s there are.
I also want to know what is after each, regardless of length. So, I want to
be able to get "text1", but not "text4" because it is after "no" and I want
all of "text5+more Text" because it is after "yes". It is like the yeses are
bullet points and I want all the info after them. However, all in one
string.
It seems like this is the type of thing the re module would be good at.
But for your example, this would work too:
for s in string.split('no'):
if 'yes' in s:
j = s.index('yes')
print s[j+4:]
