Do you have the text as above - a single string - or coming from a file? I'll presume a single string. En.., the text is multi-string from str(something) within python. I would treat the text as lines, particularly since the diff markers etc are all line oriented.

I personally like peter's method: text.partition("diff --git")[0].strip() Thanks, Bo There's any number of variations on that you might use, but that should get you going.

I personally like peter's method: text.partition("diff --git")[0].strip() Yes, Peter's partition method is very short and direct. Personally I would include a leading newline in the string, thus: text.partition("\ndiff --git ") to make it more precise. Consider a patch which discusses your script; its comment area might well mention the string "diff --git", as this email does. What you end up with may depend on what further things you do with the text.

[Tutor] xlrd has no attribute
I'm trying to learn how open a xls file in python. I thought this would be easier. I've read on a blog this code and seen it on other websites. I thought I'd try it out. I'm on Windows 10 with python 3.6.4. import xlrd def open_file(path): """ Open and read an Excel file """ book = xlrd.open_workbook(path) # print number of sheets print(book.nsheets) # print sheet names print(book.sheet_names()) # get the first worksheet first_sheet = book.sheet_by_index(0) # read a row print(first_sheet.row_values(0)) # read a cell cell = first_sheet.cell(0,0) print(cell) print(cell.value) open_file("C:/Users/Roger/Documents/Roger/archive/area codes.xls") But I get an error: Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Users\Roger\Documents\Roger\Python\xlrd.py", line 1, in import xlrd File "C:\Users\Roger\Documents\Roger\Python\xlrd.py", line 26, in open_file("C:/Users/Roger/Documents/Roger/archive/area codes.xls") File "C:\Users\Roger\Documents\Roger\Python\xlrd.py", line 7, in open_file book = xlrd.open_workbook(path) AttributeError: module 'xlrd' has no attribute 'open_workbook' I've looked at http://www.lexicon.net/sjmachin/xlrd.html and it looks like it should be ok. I've looked at Stack overflow and I have the opening/closing parentheses appropriately placed to make it a method. Can you help, please? ___ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor

What is the name of the file that causes the error? What is the name of the module you are importing? You are masking the xlrd module with your xlrd.py file and so import your own file. Your file does not have the method so you get an error. Don't name your applications after the modules you are using. -- Alan G Author of the Learn to Program web site http://www.alan-g.me.uk/ http://www.amazon.com/author/alan_gauld Follow my photo-blog on Flickr at: http://www.flickr.com/photos/alangauldphotos ___ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
