How to extract specific data from .SRC (note pad file)
#1
Hi experts, I was tasked to build something to extract specific data from notepad within these 2 days and I am new to python and has never program anything before.

I wish to ask for assistance and some guidance on the extraction of specific data from .SRC file which can be opened using notepad.

Attached is the details of what I need to extract and save it or generated them into another notepad file.

Much appreciated for all the help in advance!

To me, .SRC files are Source Code files, which have little if anything to do with Notepad {disclaimer: I'm not a user of the MS Windows OS}

Notepad is no more than very basic text editor and not a very good one at that: I'm sure that I read somewhere that it has some quirks that make it so, but I could be wrong.

Where?

This sounds like it may be a college or school project, am I right?

Rob101 is correct, furthermore,
acronyms should be avoided, especially if they have more than one value.
You should elaborate on what .SRC file is.
