Hi, ALL, I'm trying to process a file which has following lines: 192.168.1.6 > 192.168.1.7: ICMP echo request, id 100, seq 200, length 30
(this is the text file out of tcpdump) Now I can esily split the line twice: once by ':' symbol to separate address and the protocol information and the second time by ',' to get information about the protocol. However, I don't need all the protocol info. All I'm interested in is the last field, which is length. Is there a way to write something like this: for data in f: (address,traffic) = string.split(data, ':') length = string.split(traffic, ',')[3] I'm interesred in only one element, so why should care about everything else? This can be easily done in Perl, but I'm stuck with Python now. ;-) Thank you. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
