Hello :-) Can someone please explain to me ho can I find out how many elements are there in one record of a list?
The problem is as follows: I have a txt file from which I read data into Python. The file looks something like this: 01 bla bla bla 23,15 2345,67 02 alb alb 2,4 890,1 03 bal bla alb lab 567,12345 87,45 .... I need to be able to discriminate the string parts from the numeric ones. Since the number of words in the file can vary, I have to be able to find out when they are finished and when the floats come in mystring[0]-> always integer mystring[1]-> string (word) mystring[1-X]-> last string (word) mystring[X+1]-> always float mystring[X+2]-> always float it would have been nice if I could find out the total number of the fields in one list record so that I could then adress them via a variable.
