How To Split

[ekasII]

I have a list:
BMW.blue
VW.red
AUDI.blue

I used re.search to get all blue cars
BMW.blue
AUDI.blue

How do I use split to get only the cars without the dotColour:
BMW
AUDI
(without specifing the cars, as the list changes depending on the cur dir)

Example:

>>> carlist = ['BMW.blue','VW.red','AUDI.blue']
>>> [item.split('.')[0] for item in carlist if 'blue' in item]
['BMW', 'AUDI']
>>>

Nice Work! But how do i get the end results without the square brackets and the single quote commas?
I have This:
['BMW','AUDI']
I want This:
BMW
AUDI

But again Nice Work! and I realised that using [1] splits to the right.

Thanks I got It, I used:

if l__blue_cars:
    l__split = (l__item.split('.')[0])

notice that I used Round Brackets, there after i used "\n" to print on a different line.

Nice Work Man!

Here's another possibility:

>>> carlist = ['BMW.blue','VW.red','AUDI.blue']
>>> for car in [item.split('.')[0] for item in carlist if 'blue' in item]:
...     print car
...     
BMW
AUDI
>>>
