As others have said, a concrete example would be great. For the time
being, sounds like maybe regular expressions could do it. We don't know
if your data is already in a list of small strings, or if it is just a

Take a look here for an intro to RE, though:

very helpful.
It sounds like you have some data that looks like
CLUSTER 1
SOMETHING ELSE
CLUSTER 5
MORE STUFF
ETC
and you would like to make a list of [1, 5] - the data after 'CLUSTER'.
Is that right? Here is someth
