I am unable to create multiple files with this code, what is wrong?

So I'm trying to write a program that takes names from a list and adds it to a letter. A text file is created for each name for the letter however the code seems to stop working at that point.
letter = []
names = []
file = open("Input/Letters/starting_letter.txt", "r")
letter = file.readlines()
file.close()
name1 = open("Input/Names/invited_names.txt", "r")
names = name1.readlines()
name1.close()
for name in names:
create_letter = open(f"{name}.txt", "w")
for line in letter:
line = line.replace("[name],", f"{name},")
create_letter.write(line)
create_letter.close()
I get the error message
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Users\Default User\PycharmProjects\Mail Merge Project Start\main.py", line 10, in <module>
create_letter = open(f"{name}.txt", "w")
OSError: [Errno 22] Invalid argument: 'Aang\n.txt'
Is there a problem with the way I am creating the files?

You can't have newlines in your file name. It is invalid in your OS/filesystem.
Remove them with:
open(f"{name.strip()}.txt", "w")
Or:
open(f"{name.replace('\n', '')}.txt", "w")

I need to print the specific part of a line in a txt file

I have this text file that reads ,,Janitors, 3,, ,,Programers, 4,, and ,,Secretaries, 1,, and all of these are on different lines. I need to print out Janitor seperate from the number 3, and this has to work for basicaly any word and number combo. This is the code I came up with and, of course, it doesnt work. It says ,,substring not found,,
File = open("Jobs.txt", "r")
Beg_line = 1
for lines in File:
Line = str(File.readline(Beg_line))
Line = Line.strip('\n')
print(Line[0: Line.index(',')])
Beg_line = Beg_line + 1
File.close()

Try running the following code:
file = open("Jobs.txt", "r")
lines = file.read().split('\n')
for line in lines:
print(line.split(' ')[0])
file.close()
This will give the following output:
Janitors
Programers
Secretaries

Searching a document for specific strings, then print out a part of that string

So in my program im attempting to search a document called console.log that has lines like this:
65536:KONSOLL:1622118174:NSN:ActivationUnits::HandleActivationUnitsMessages. There is no handler for FNo: 34
65536:KONSOLL:1622177574:NSN:ActivationUnits::HandleActivationUnitsMessages. There is no handler for FNo: 34
65536:KONSOLL:1622190642:NSN:From AutroSafe: 28 5 2021, 08:30:42; 05.046; Service: "Self Verify" mislykket; ; ; ProcessMsg; F:2177 L:655; 53298;1;13056;;
65536:KONSOLL:1622204573:NSN:ActivationUnits::HandleActivationUnitsMessages. There is no handler for FNo: 34
In my input i always specify "Self Verify" as im looking after that. I want the detectornumber (05.046) on the output. But i get a error.
This is my code:
import os
import re
pattern = input("What are you searching for? -->")
detectorPattern = re.compile(r'\d\d.\d\d\d')
directory = os.listdir()
for x in range(len(directory)):
with open(directory[x], 'r') as reader:
print("Opening " + directory[1])
# Read and print the entire file line by line
for line in reader:
findLine = re.search(pattern, line)
if findLine is not None:
mo = detectorPattern.search(findLine)
print(mo.group())
So what im trying to do is to to go for one line, and if i find "Self Verify" i will search that line for the detector specified in detectorPattern, and print that one out.
This is the error i get:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Users\haral\Desktop\PP\SVFinder.py", line 14, in <module>
mo = detectorPattern.search(findLine)
TypeError: expected string or bytes-like object

Change:
mo = detectorPattern.search(findLine)
To:
mo = detectorPattern.search(findLine.string)
This will print:
162219
when executing the line:
print(mo.group())

I suggest you put directly line into detectorPattern.search.
Also please not if x is not None: can be replaced by if x:
This example should works as is:
import re
pattern = "Self Verify"
reader = ['65536:KONSOLL:1622118174:NSN:ActivationUnits::HandleActivationUnitsMessages. There is no handler for FNo: 34',
'65536:KONSOLL:1622177574:NSN:ActivationUnits::HandleActivationUnitsMessages. There is no handler for FNo: 34',
'65536:KONSOLL:1622190642:NSN:From AutroSafe: 28 5 2021, 08:30:42; 05.046; Service: "Self Verify" mislykket; ; ; ProcessMsg; F:2177 L:655; 53298;1;13056;; ',
'65536:KONSOLL:1622204573:NSN:ActivationUnits::HandleActivationUnitsMessages. There is no handler for FNo: 34]']
for line in reader:
findLine = re.search(pattern, line)
detectorPattern = re.compile(r'\d\d.\d\d\d')
if findLine:
detector = detectorPattern.search(line).group()
print(detector)
Output:
162219

I want the detectornumber (05.046) on the output
This seems to do the job. I just changed findLine by pattern in detectorPattern.
import os
import re
pattern = input("What are you searching for? -->")
detectorPattern = re.compile(r'\d\d.\d\d\d')
directory = os.listdir()
for x in range(len(directory)):
with open(directory[x], 'r') as reader:
print("Opening " + directory[1])
# Read and print the entire file line by line
for line in reader:
findLine = re.search(pattern, line)
if findLine is not None:
mo = detectorPattern.search(pattern)
print(mo.group())

How to parse XML document without closing tags (python)?

I am trying to read an xml document that does not appear to have closing tags. I did not make this XML document, but I'm downloading it from the following location:
import ftplib
import xml.etree.cElementTree as et
filename = 'FBOFeed20170509'
ftp = ftplib.FTP('ftp.fbo.gov')
ftp.login(user = '', passwd = '')
localfile = open(filename, 'wb')
ftp.retrbinary('RETR ' + filename, localfile.write, 1024)
ftp.quit()
localfile.close()
tree = et.parse(filename)
for node in tree.iter():
print (node.tag, node.attrib)
And here is my error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "", line 18, in <module>
tree = et.parse(filename)
File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.5/lib/python3.5/xml/etree/ElementTree.py", line 1184, in parse
tree.parse(source, parser)
File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.5/lib/python3.5/xml/etree/ElementTree.py", line 596, in parse
self._root = parser._parse_whole(source)
File "<string>", line None
xml.etree.ElementTree.ParseError: mismatched tag: line 24, column 2
So I opened the file with a text editor to take a look, and see there are no closing tags. Here are the first 24 lines:
<PRESOL>

</PRESOL>
I guess the error is related to the fact that PRESOL is closed with /PRESOL, but none of the other tags are closed. This is a straightforward entry, some of the others include various HTML tags in the DESC or CONTACT portions so I'm not sure how I could write something to close the tags before I parse, for example here is another portion of the file:
<CONTACT>Tammy Davis
Tammy.Davis6#va.gov
Tammy.Davis6#va.gov
<DESC>The purpose...
I'm not sure if all of the tags are in the same order or even the same for each entry. Is this even an XML format? Is there a different python library I should be using here?

https://github.com/presidential-innovation-fellows/fbo-parser Parses the daily FBO file into JSON which adds the closing tags to the fields within the notice types. I use it then convert it to an XML file to import data into my database.

I've gone through the same issue recently. Below the piece of code I used to save all "PRESOL" (i.e., presolicitation notices) into a .csv file
tags = ["DATE","YEAR","AGENCY","OFFICE","LOCATION","ZIP",
"CLASSCOD","OFFADD","SUBJECT","SOLNBR","RESPDATE","ARCHDATE",
"CONTACT","CONTACTDESC","LINK","URL","URLDESC"]
for y in range(2005,2019):
outfile = 'my_dir/FBO' + str(y) + '.csv' # output file
yearterm = 'FBOFeed' + str(y) + '*'
counter = 0
with open(outfile, 'w+') as g:
writer = csv.writer(g)
writer.writerow(tags)
for csvfile in glob.glob(yearterm):
inpresol = 0
oldtag = '' # initiate the definition of old tag
with open(csvfile, 'r+', encoding="latin_1") as f:
for line in f:
tag = line[line.find("<")+1:line.find(">")] # find the line tag
if tag == "DESC": # there are multiple "DESC" tags, take care of them
dicttag = oldtag + tag
else:
dicttag = tag
if "<PRESOL>" in line: # start of the record: initiate the dictionary
d = {x : [] for x in tags}
inpresol = 1
continue
elif "</PRESOL>" in line: # end of the record
writer.writerow([d["DATE"],d["YEAR"],d["AGENCY"],d["OFFICE"],
d["LOCATION"],d["ZIP"],d["CLASSCOD"],d["OFFADD"],
d["SUBJECT"],d["SOLNBR"],d["RESPDATE"],
d["ARCHDATE"],d["CONTACT"],d["CONTACTDESC"],d["LINK"],
d["URL"],d["URLDESC"]])
inpresol = 0
continue
if inpresol == 1: # store the results
tagged_tag = "<" + tag + ">"
newline = line.replace(tagged_tag, "")
d[dicttag] = newline
oldtag = tag
f.close()
g.close()
I know that it is not much "pythonic", but it works pretty well and stores yearly files with the record in .csv format.

You could use regular expressions to create end-tags and do something like this:
text = re.sub(r"<(\w+)>\s+([^<]+|)", r"<\1>\2</\1>", text)
text = re.sub(r"<PRESOL>\s*</PRESOL>", "<PRESOL>", text)

I am trying to decompress a file that I created

My code has a file "filefile.txt" which has a compressed sentence in it. The file is laid out like :
1
2
3
4
5
1
2
6
9
10
11
2
12
12
9
This
is
a
sentence
.
too
!
Yo
yo
bling
The original text that I want to decompress says "!"
My code says:
fo = open("filefile.txt","r")
script = fo.readline()
script2 = fo.readline()
fo.close()
script2 = script2.split()
script = [s.strip("\n") for s in script]
sentencewords = []
while len(script) > 0:
for p in script:
sentencewords.append(enumerate(script2.index(p)))
script.remove(0)
print(sentencewords)
This is the error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "F:\code attempts\AT13.py", line 46, in <module>
sentencewords.append(enumerate(script2.index(p)))
ValueError: '1' is not in list
I need sentencewords to contain "This is a sentence. This is too! Yo yo bling bling!"
I have changed it now but it still doesn't work.
sentencewords.append(enumerate(script2.enumerate(p)))
'Traceback (most recent call last):
File "F:\code attempts\AT13.py", line 46, in
sentencewords.append(enumerate(script2.enumerate(p)))
AttributeError: 'list' object has no attribute 'enumerate''
Does anyone know if there is another way round this problem or how to fix my current code?
fo = open("filefile.txt","r")
script = fo.readline()
script2 = fo.readline()
fo.close()
script2 = script2.split()
script = [s.strip("\n") for s in script]
sentencewords = []
indexes = []
for line in fo:
if line.strip().isdigit():
indexes.append(line)
else:
break
words = [line.strip() for line in fo if line.strip()]
while len(script) > 0:
for p in script:
sentencewords.append(words[index-1])
print(sentencewords)
Updated code but I don't know what the I/O thing means in the latest output from python.
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "F:/code attempts/attempt14.py", line 45, in <module>
for line in fo:
ValueError: I/O operation on closed file.
fo.close() has been moved further down the code and now it says
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "F:\code attempts\attempt14.py", line 55, in <module>
sentencewords.append(words[index-1])
MemoryError
Any suggestions on how to fix my code, I'd be grateful for
thanks

Format the text file in a better way and it will be easier to deal with.
1 2 3 4 5 1 2 6 9 10 11 2 12 12 9
This is a sentence. too ! Yo yo bling
Then do this...
script = []
sentencewords = []
with open("filefile.txt", "r") as fo:
for line in fo:
script.append(line.strip("\n").split(" "))
for i in script[0]:
sentencewords.append(script[1][int(i)-1])
print(sentencewords)
Your indices above 10 will give issues though, because you don't have that many words.
