  • Python- Convert a mixed number to a float

    - by user345660
    I want to make a function that converts mixed numbers and fractions (as strings) to floats. Here's some examples: '1 1/2' -> 1.5 '11/2' -> 5.5 '7/8' -> 0.875 '3' -> 3 '7.7' -> 7.7 I'm currently using this function, but I think it could be improved. It also doesn't handle numbers that are already in decimal representation def mixedtofloat(txt): mixednum = re.compile("(\\d+) (\\d+)\\/(\\d+)",re.IGNORECASE|re.DOTALL) fraction = re.compile("(\\d+)\\/(\\d+)",re.IGNORECASE|re.DOTALL) integer = re.compile("(\\d+)",re.IGNORECASE|re.DOTALL) m = mixednum.search(txt) n = fraction.search(txt) o = integer.search(txt) if m: return float(m.group(1))+(float(m.group(2))/float(m.group(3))) elif n: return float(n.group(1))/float(n.group(2)) elif o: return float(o.group(1)) else: return txt Thanks!

  • How to convert an HTML table to an array in python

    - by user345660
    I have an html document, and I want to pull the tables out of this document and return them as arrays. I'm picturing 2 functions, one that finds all the html tables in a document, and a second one that turns html tables into 2-dimensional arrays. Something like this: htmltables = get_tables(htmldocument) for table in htmltables: array=make_array(table) There's 2 catches: 1. The number tables varies day to day 2. The tables have all kinds of weird extra formatting, like bold and blink tags, randomly thrown in. Thanks!
