PLEASE USE PYTHON

Lists and Files

I have gathered together some interesting data into a filecalled UAlbanyLightning.txt

The file contains all recorded lightning strikes in the UAlbanyarea

Parsing

Review alist =str.split()            # alist will contain the elements of str – split usingwhitespace

Specifying a delimiter

Examples: delimiter = ‘,’ delimiter = ‘-‘, delimiter = ‘;’

Stripping specified characters

Example: astring.strip(‘n’)

Avoid blank lines: if len(line) == 0:

                                   continue

Splitting on commas
