Dear group,
I have two tables:
First table: spot_cor: 432 117 499 631 10 0 326 83 62 197 0 0 37 551
Second table: spot_int 0 0 98 1 0 5470 2 0 113 3 0 5240 4 0 82.5 5 0 92 6 0 5012 7 0 111 8 0 4612 9 0 115 10 0 4676.5
I stored these two tables as lists:
>>> spot_cor[0:5] ['432\t117', '499\t631', 10\t0', '326\t83', '62\t197']
Note there is no ' before the 10. That won't fly'
>>> spot_int[0:5] [' 0\t 0\t18.9', ' 1\t 0\t649.4', ' 10\t 0\t37.3', ' 3\t 0\t901.6', ' 4\t 0\t14.9']
It would be a lot easier to work with if the lists looked like (assumes all data are numeric):
[(432,117), (499,631), (10,0), (326,83), (62,197)]
[(0,0,18.9), (1,0,649.4), (10,0,37.3), (3,0,901.6), (4,0,14.9)]
What is the source for this data? Is it a tab-delimited file? If so the CSV module can help make this translation.
I also assume that you want the first 2 elements of a spot_int element to match a spot_cor element.
Then (for the subset of data you've provided):
>>> for ele1 in spot_cor:
... for ele2 in spot_int:
... if ele1 == ele2[:2]:
... print "%8s %8s %8s" % ele2
...
10 0 37.3I want to write all the three columns of spot_int. [snip]
Hope that helps.
