read a text file, find all integers, append to list

[Pedroski55]

@deanhystad I often copy stuff from you experts here and try it out at home. It's a good way to learn.

I made a text file with some text. Added some numbers on each line, then copied all the numbers from above in as well.

But when I try your code, it returns an empty list. Obviously, I'm doing something wrong, but I can't see what. Could you help?

>>> for filename in input_files:
numbers[filename] = get_numberes_from_file(filename)


[]

import json
import re

path2text = '/home/pedro/temp/'
myfile = 'test_number_finder.txt'
 
integer_pattern = re.compile("[+-]?[0-9]+")
 
def get_numberes_from_file(filename):
    numbers = []
    with open(path2text + filename, "r") as file:
        for line in file:
            if line.startswith("*Nset"):
                break
        for line in file:
            if line.startswith("*Text"):
                break
            numbers += map(int, re.findall(integer_pattern, line))
    print(numbers)
    return numbers
 
input_files = ['test_number_finder.txt']
numbers = {}
for filename in input_files:
    numbers[filename] = get_numberes_from_file(filename)
