python - Text file creation with non subscriptable objects -

i want create text file non subscriptable objects in python , not know how proceed. want extract each month of list , create separate row each. here how list of non subscriptable objects , error like:

the code use following:

months=['january', 'february', 'march', 'april', 'may', 'june', 'july', 'august', 'september', 'october', 'novemeber', 'december']  in range(len(sections)):       if (' tax ' in sections[i]     or ' tax ' in sections[i]     or ' policy ' in sections[i]     or ' policy ' in sections[i]):          pat=re.compile("|".join([r"\b{}\b".format(m) m in months]), re.m)         month = pat.search("\n".join(sections[i].splitlines()[0:6]))         print(month)  outfile = open('h:/uncertainty_data/a_2005_months.txt', 'w') outfile.writelines(month['match']) outfile.close 

any appreciate it!

cheers,

month regex match object, , if want access text matched it, can't index (it's not iterable).

you want use

outfile.write(month.group(0)) 

although (since you're doing outside of loop) write last month matched. if want collect matches , write them file, like

outputs = [] pat = re.compile("|".join([r"\b{}\b".format(m) m in months]), re.m)  section in sections:      if any(item in section item in (' tax ', ' tax ', ' policy ', ' policy ')):         month = pat.search("\n".join(section.splitlines()[0:6]))         outputs.append(month.group(0))  open('h:/uncertainty_data/a_2005_months.txt', 'w') outfile:     outfile.writelines(outputs)
