import re
s1 =' 25000 '
s2 = ' 5.5910 '
mypat = re.compile('[0-9]*(\.[0-9]*|$)')
rate= mypat.search(s1)
print rate.group()
rate=mypat.search(s2)
print rate.group()
rate = mypat.search(s1)
price = float(rate.group())
print price
I get an error when it hits the whole number, that is in this format:
s1 =' 25000 '
For whole number s2, mypat catching empty string. I want it to give
me 25000.
I am getting this error:
price = float(rate.group())
ValueError: empty string for float()
Anyone knows, how I can get 25000 out of s2 = ' 5.5910 '
using regex pattern, mypat = re.compile('[0-9]*(\.[0-9]*|$)'). mypat
works fine for real numbers, but doesn't work for whole numbers.
thanks
