The result of one of my web scrapes produces the following:
price = ['$1049.98']
which is type list, and I am trying to convert this to float.

Take the first and only element in the list, strip off the $ sign and convert it to a float:
parsed_price = float(price[0].lstrip('$'))

import re
price = ['$1049.98']
get_values = [float(re.search(r'(\d+\.\d+)+',cost).group()) for cost in price]
print(get_values)
>>>[1049.98]

Here is my simple solution. Hope that helps.
price = ['$1049.98']
result = [float(i[1:]) for i in price][0]
print(result)
You can change the index(I mean, replace 0 with other numbers) or loop though the list(result).

I want to strip 0 from a given string.
The string contains either 1 or 0. I want to strip the zeroes if they appear at the ends.
I know i can do this using if condition, but i want to know if there is any function made to do this efficiently than using if-else.
Example-
String = 0100010101010
Output = 10001010101
Also, i don't think using regex is any more efficient, complexity wise.
Try this:
s = "0100010101010"
print(s.lstrip("0").rstrip("0"))
'10001010101'
This should work for the string s:
s = s.strip("0")
Make sure s is a string and not a number.
Can you try this , it will work
s = str(s).strip("0")

if you know exact number of int you want in your list, how do you put it in one line [closed]

If I know that I need to put for example 5 numbers in a list, how can i put it in with just one line of input?
Sorry for beginner question, but i am new to this and I wasn't able to find an answer. Thanks in advance.
To me it is unclear what you mean exactly, but I think you mean this:
myList = [int1,int2,int3,...]
Integers can be added into the list directly this way. I hope this helped!
Note that this goes for any type of value, not only for integers
In order to read user input of multiple numbers, you can do the following:
myList = [int(i) for i in input().split()]
If on Python2, you should use this instead:
myList = [int(i) for i in raw_input().split()]
You can use Pythons built range() function. Which will return a range of numbers, on which you would then apply the Python list() function to.
For instance if you want a list between 1 and 100 you can do.
list1 = list(range(1,101))
This which would return all integers between 1 and 100.
In your case say you wanted 5 numbers between 0-5
five_numbers = list(range(1,6))
This would return [1,2,3,4,5]

I have following 2D array
name_list = [['Orange', '5'],['Mango','6'],['Banana','3']]
I want to get each fruit name alone with its count and print it using a python code. So how do I read above array to extract the data (inside for loop)
I need print out as
Name:Orange<br/>
Count:5<br/>
Name:Mango<br/>
Count:6<br/>
Name:Banana<br/>
Count:3<br/>
You can unpack your list like this:
for name, amount in name_list:
print("Name:{}".format(name))
print("Count:{}".format(amount))
Try this:
name_list = [['Orange', '5'],['Mango','6'],['Banana','3']]
for item in name_list:
print("Name: {}".format(item[0]))
print("Count: {}".format(item[1]))

Count of different numbers in one long number [closed]

How can I count how many different numbers there are in one long number?
For example: this number 1122334455 has 5 different numbers.
How can I do that in Python?
You can do that as:
print len(set(str(s)))
The str() casts the int as a string
The set() takes the unique elements of the string and creates a set of it
The len() returns the length of the set
Examples
>>> print len(set(str(s)))
5
s = 1324082304
>>> print len(set(str(s)))
6

How to check if part of text is in tuple?
For example:
my_data = ((1234L,), (23456L,), (3333L,))
And we need to find if 123 or 1234 is in tuple.
I didn't worked lot with tuples before.
In array we use:
if variable in array
But its not working for tuples like my_data
PS. 1st answer solved problem.
def findIt(data, num):
num = str(num)
return any(num in str(i) for item in data for i in item)
data = ((1234L,), (23456L,), (3333L,))
print findIt(data, 123)
Output
True
