Re: The sum of numbers in a line from a file

Let's say I have a sample file like this:
Name1 2 34 5 6 78

name4398-72-P/FY7684496978
name5909-37-3689A-FY97941006179
For name1, I want to add together columns 4, 5, 6, and get an average from
that, then do the same for the last two columns. I want to do this for every
name.
The following solution works for Python3 (due to the unpacking using the *
syntax)
from collections import defaultdict, namedtuple
info = namedtuple('info', 'sum avg')
interesting_data = (x.strip(' \n') for idx, x in
enumerate(open('file').readlines()) if idx 1 and len(x.strip(' \n')) 0)
split_points = [2, 4, 5]
results = defaultdict(list)
for line in interesting_data:
name, _, _, _, *rest = line.split()
last_point = 0
for point in split_points:
s = sum(map(int, rest[last_point:point]))
i = info(s, s / (point - last_point))
results[name].append(i)
last_point = point
print(results)
print(results['name3'][0].avg)

Is any link or document available which help me to do this work more effectivey faster. Always remember, PyPi is your friend. I've not used it but the following is available which works with Microsoft's XML based document types. It is not automation per se (and doesn't use pywin32) but a library for pptx document manipulation. https://pypi.python.org/pypi/python-pptx/ Docs are here https://python-pptx.readthedocs.org/en/latest/ --Simon -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
