Splitting strings to lists using Python

Question

I've got this string:

string = '26.10-8-00 - Fabricação de componentes eletrônicos | 46.51-6-01 - Comércio atacadista de equipamentos de informática | 95.11-8-00 - Reparação e manutenção de computadores e de equipamentos periféricos'

I want to create a list with those codes out of it. It might look like this:

mylist = ['26.10-8-00', '46.51-6-01', '95.11-8-00']

using regular exression? re.findall(r'[0-9]+.[0-9]+-[0-9]-[0-9]+', string) — titipata

using re.findall

import re
string = '26.10-8-00 - Fabricação de componentes eletrônicos | 46.51-6-01 - Comércio atacadista de equipamentos de informática | 95.11-8-00 - Reparação e manutenção de computadores e de equipamentos periféricos'
output = re.findall(r'\d+\.\d+-\d+-\d+', string)
# ['26.10-8-00', '46.51-6-01', '95.11-8-00']

I'd split the string by | to get a list, and then split each value by - and extract just the date part of it:

result = [x.split(' - ')[0] for x in s.split(' | ')]

You can use regular expressions:

import re
string = '26.10-8-00 - Fabricação de componentes eletrônicos | 46.51-6-01 - Comércio atacadista de equipamentos de informática | 95.11-8-00 - Reparação e manutenção de computadores e de equipamentos periféricos'
new_string = [i for i in re.split("\s-\s|(?<=\|)\s(?=\d)", string) if re.findall("^\d+\.\d+-\d+-\d+", i)]

Output:

['26.10-8-00', '46.51-6-01', '95.11-8-00']

Mines a more simple approach but gets the job done.

string = '26.10-8-00 - Fabricação de componentes eletrônicos | 46.51-6-01 - Comércio atacadista de equipamentos de informática | 95.11-8-00 - Reparação e manutenção de computadores e de equipamentos periféricos'
mylist = []
for x in string.split(" | "):
  mylist.append(x.split(" - ")[0])
print(mylist)

Output

['26.10-8-00', '46.51-6-01', '95.11-8-00']

Consider .strip() to remove the leading space in the last two results.

i fixed it by adding spaces infront and behind the | in "for x in string.split(" | "):"
