The thing is, I don't know where to start. I know how to open the attached
file, but I don't know how to work inside the file. Is this a csv file? Do I
need to use a split function? In what way should I look at the file? As a
string? As lines?
Best,
Anna

Hi,
I'm a beginner at python and I'm trying to extract a specific column from a txt
file ( see attached file).
In the attached file I want to extract the entire column
pph2_prob (i.e. column 16). But I want to get all the values from that
column without the headline
pph2_prob.
How do I accomplish that?
Hi Anna,
We're more than happy to help, but we also would love to see what you've done
so far. What have you tried so far? Can you get the entire column *with* the
headline?
When you show the effort that you've taken, you'll find people are much more
inclined to help - very few people here will do your work for you, but most of
us are perfectly willing to point you in the right direction!
