Hi
Is there a simple way to extract words speerated by a space in python
the way i do it in awk '{print $4 $5}' . I am sure there should be some
but i dont know it.
Thanks

The 'str.split' method is probably what you want:
. x = The confused frog
It takes a few more lines in Python, but you can do something like
for text in open(file.txt,r):
words = text.split()
print words[4],words[5]
(assuming that awk starts counting from zero -- I forget).

mystr = '1 2 3 4 5 6'
parts = mystr.split()
print parts[3:5]

Something along the lines of:
words = input.split()
print

That throws an exception if there are fewer than 6 fields, which might
or might not be what you want.

i guess it depends on how faithfully you want to reproduce awk's
