Use split() to split the string into four strings, using spaces as
separators, then use int() to convert the resulting strings that
interest you.
a, b, c, d = 'Total size: 173233 (371857)'.split ()
first_int, second_int = int(c), int(d[1:-1])
first_int 173233 second_int

371857

E.g.:

#v+
import re
re.findall(r'\d +', 'Total size: 173233 (371587)') ['173233', '371587']

int(d[1:-1]) can be replaced by d.strip("()"), which may or
may not be clearer in intent.

The E728 needs to be 28E7,

By mistake I coded something like print ("1" > 1) and got the result "True". Comparing an integer and a string seems meaningless to me, and I would prefer to have an exception thrown. Can someone explain why Python allows comparisons between integers and strings, and how it handles those cases? Why is "1" > 1? Pychecker does not warn about the line of code above -- I wish it did.

i think in Ruby, if you have an array (or list) of integers foo = you can use foo.join(",") to join them into a string "1,2,3" in Python... is the method to use ",".join() ? but then it must take a list of strings... not integers... any fast method?
