parsing local xml files to csv

[snippsat]

>>> [i.text.strip() for i in var.find_all('sumStat')]
as below or otherwise
['vald':'76208', 'invd':'0', 'min':'1001', 'max':'1800', 'mean':'1412.79', 'stdev':'231.955']


2.How do I combine category tags?

Example:

>>> sum_stat = [i.text.strip() for i in var.find_all('sumStat')]
>>> sum_stat
['76208', '0', '1001', '1800', '1412.79', '231.955']

>>> att = [i.attrs['type'] for i in var.find_all('sumStat')]
>>> att
['vald', 'invd', 'min', 'max', 'mean', 'stdev']

>>> # Combine with zip()
>>> list(zip(att, sum_stat))
[('vald', '76208'),
 ('invd', '0'),
 ('min', '1001'),
 ('max', '1800'),
 ('mean', '1412.79'),
 ('stdev', '231.955')]

>>> dict(list(zip(att, sum_stat)))
{'vald': '76208',
 'invd': '0',
 'min': '1001',
 'max': '1800',
 'mean': '1412.79',
 'stdev': '231.955'}
