Hi
I have some lines in a text file like
ADD R1, R2
ADD3 R4, R5, R6
ADD.MOV R1, R2, [0x10]
If I grep words with this code
for line in fp:
if my_word in line:
Then if my_word is "ADD", I get 3 matches. However, if I grep word with this
code
for line in fp:
for word in line.split():
if my_word == word:
Then I get only one match which is ADD R1. R2.
Actually I want to get 2 matches. ADD R1, R2 and ADD.MOV R1, R2, [0x10] because these two lines are
actually "ADD" instructions. However, "ADD3" is something else.
How can I fix the code for that purpose?
Grep's "words" are different from what line.split() returns:
>>> 'ADD.MOV R1, R2, [0x10]'.split()
['ADD.MOV', 'R1,', 'R2,', '[0x10]']
If you want to match "ADD" instructions, you'll have to use
word.startswith or some other method to separate the "ADD"
from the ".MOV."
