Write code using find() and string slicing (see section 6.10) to extract the number at the end of the line below. Convert the extracted value to a floating point number and print it out.

6.5.py

text = "X-DSPAM-Confidence:    0.8475";
startPos = text.find(':')
piece = text[startPos+1:]
end = float(piece)
print(end)

text = "X-DSPAM-Confidence: 0.8475";
number= text.find('0')
ft=float(text[number:])
print(ft)

text = "X-DSPAM-Confidence: 0.8475"
x= text.find(":")
print(x)
y= text[x+1:]
print(y)
value=float(y)
print(value)

Hei.
Here is my suggestion which works. This is only for help. Try yourself before copy code.

text = "X-DSPAM-Confidence:    0.8475";

find = text.find ('0.8475')

a = float(find)

print(text[find:])

text = "X-DSPAM-Confidence: 0.8475";
print(float(text[text.find("0"):]))

#Example of a working code:

text = "X-DSPAM-Confidence:    0.8475";
f = text.find(' ')
n = text[f:]
print(float(n.lstrip()))

text = "X-DSPAM-Confidence: 0.8475";
a=text.find('0')
print(float(text[a:]))

text = "X-DSPAM-Confidence: 0.8475"
start=text.find("0")
number= text[start:]
final=float(number)
print(final)

text = "X-DSPAM-Confidence: 0.8475"
f = text.find("0")
x = text[f:]
value = float(x)
print(value)

text = "X-DSPAM-Confidence: 0.8475"
print(float(text[text.find(':')+1:]))

text = ("X-DSPAM-Confidence : 0.8475")
atpos = text.find (" : ")
startpos = text.find (" 5 ",atpos)
host = text[atpos-4 :]
value = float(host)
print (value)

text = "X-DSPAM-Confidence: 0.8475"
finding = text.find("0")
#print(finding) - you will see what is the ordinal number of the number zero
number = text [23:]
print(float(number))

text = "X-DSPAM-Confidence: 0.8475"
space = text.find(':')
piece = text[space+1:]
print(float(piece))

this works

text = "X-DSPAM-Confidence: 0.8475"
pos=text.find('0.8475')
new=text[pos:]
j=float(new)
print(j)

text = "X-DSPAM-Confidence: 0.8475"
hewi = text.find(':')
hewi1 = text[hewi+1:]
hewi2 = float(hewi1)
print(hewi2)

3 lines:
text = "X-DSPAM-Confidence: 0.8475"
textNum=text.find('0')
print(float(text[textNum:len(text)]))

2 Lines: Better :)

text = "X-DSPAM-Confidence: 0.8475";
print(float(text[text.find(':')+1:]))

1 Line
print(float("X-DSPAM-Confidence: 0.8475"["X-DSPAM-Confidence: 0.8475".find(':')+1:]))

Smaller by 2 chars.
print(float("X-DSPAM-Confidence: 0.8475"["X-DSPAM-Confidence: 0.8475".find('0'):]))

text = "X-DSPAM-Confidence: 0.8475"

x= text.find(' ')
z= text[x+1:]
z= float (z)
print (z)

text = "X-DSPAM-Confidence: 0.8475"
a=text.find(":")
b=float(text[a+1:].lstrip())
print(b)

text = "X-DSPAM-Confidence: 0.8475"
text = float(text[text.find(':')+1:].lstrip())
print(text)

text = "X-DSPAM-Confidence: 0.8475"
x = text.find("0")
z = text.find("5")

print(float(text[x:z + 1]))

text = "X-DSPAM-Confidence: 0.8475"
start= text.find(':')
end=start[start+1:]
string=float(end)
print(string)

Text = “X-DSPAM-Confidence: 0.8475”

Piece = text {Pos+2:}
end= float(piece)
Print(end)

text = "X-DSPAM-Confidence: 0.8475"

f = float(text[a+1:])
print(f)
