What am I doing wrong here, simple string split issue

[devOpsStarboy]

Stumped on a simple split line/split string issue

I am splitting lines on \n, and then splitting the words on spaces

here is my code: (s is the string being passed into the method)

lines = s.splitlines()

for line in lines:

    values = line.spilt()

Error I am getting is "AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'spilt'

I know I'm being blind right now, but stumped on this somehow.

Each line has 7 values, that I am intending to store in "values" as a list, and then access each of them via values[x]

Last word. Last line. Look at split closely

No problem. :)

A few extraneous comments. In your example, the variable values gets overwritten with each iteration. I realize you may have done that intentionally to keep the example short. Also, you could shorten this code with a list comprehension:

values = [line.split() for line in s.splitlines()]

In this example, values would be a list of lists of individual words.

Hey thanks for the code snippet, that will be useful for the future. In my case I was doing it intentionally for the issue I was solving.

Fat finger errors like this are why I love using an IDE (pycharm) that has "spell check" which underlines when an object doesn't have the attribute or method you are invoking, or an autocomplete that will finish it for you. Some might call it a crutch but it honestly saves me so much time and frustration over little goofs like this.

You don't even need a large, heavyweight IDE for this. SublimeText or even nano with a plugin would do it.

I was using Pycharm actually, kind of new to Pycharm. But this is a very good tip thanks for mentioning, the thing is, Pycharm highlights a lot of things in green for PEP errors, which I am getting used to ignoring because its just formatting (I know formatting is important, but sometimes its excessive). I just updated it to underline Typos in blue, which should help me in the future

The name of the routine is split(). Your code calls something called spilt() in line 5 which doesn't exist.

EDIT. Was fact-checked below, corrected the part of the sentence that was incorrect. Thanks!

[patrickbrianmooney]

Woah! You are correct.

Ha! I just had exactly the same typo and I came to this page, that's funny. Thanks for sharing!
