I want to convert one string, which contains lat and lon values, to two floats. However, the string may be separated by mixing commas and spaces, such as 28.111,77.222
, 28.111, 77.222
, 28.111 77.222
, 28.111 77.222
.
I have tried this method:
import re
test = '28.111,77.222'
res = re.findall(r'\d+', test)
lat = res[0]
lon = res[1]
It only works for int, how about float numbers like this case?
import re
examples = "28.111,77.222", "28.111, 77.222", "28.111 77.222", "28.111 77.222"
# split on spaces and/or commas
[re.split(",| ", example) for example in examples]
# [['28.111', '77.222'], ['28.111', '', '77.222'], ['28.111', '77.222'], ['28.111', '', '', '77.222']]
