[Tutor] Working with output of a subprocess
Hello, Need some help with working with a text file. Is it possible to get the values associated with each of the parameter in the below text file format? For example: 1. How can I check what the Min and Max values are? 2. How to check the second column value associated with "epoch2"? Your help is greatly appreciated. I'm using Python 2.7 on Windows7.

[Tutor] how to track an entry in a large text file
Say I have a text file (example below) that has multiple records with the same format but not always the same number of lines. Each record is separated by the line that starts with “Examining file” as in below example. If you notice, the 3D Val is not there for the second record. How do I report that the “3D Val” is not present for that particular record “8866W2310089.txt”? Thanks to Alan for his reply.

[Tutor] Can Python monitor web browser content
Hello, I was wondering if Python can monitor web browser content. Specifically, I'm connected to a Machine to Machine device (essentially a Gateway) and monitoring its activity on a web browser (either IE or Chrome). There are certain parameters like RSSI (received signal strength indicator ) that I would like to monitor (read and record) for a one minute period. Is this possible in Python? If not, what can achieve this? I'm using Python 2.7 on Windows 7 Thank you!

[Tutor] help with running perl script that writes to a text file
Hello, I want to automate the following manual process from DOS promp: c:/scripts/perl>perl fix.pl base.gtx >base.txt Here is my python script: path="c:/scripts/perl/" subprocess.call(['perl','fix.pl','base.gtx >base.txt',path]) I also tried this alternative: subprocess.Popen(['perl','fix.pl','base.gtx >base.txt',path]) #same result from this method. The above script generates the base.txt file but has no content in it. any ideas as to why the resulting text file is empty? Am I using the correct python commands to run the above manual process?
