I have an xml file. I didn't make this file so I don't want to make any changes. I want to print the screen by pulling the information that provides certain conditions from the file. The value I want to get is on the same level as the value I'll do with the comparison. So even if I can check the condition, I can't pull the other data. How can I do this?



asd.xml



<report>

    <name>asd</name>

    <description>example description - 1</description>

</report>

<report>

    <name>dsa</name>

    <description>example description - 2</description>

</report>

<report>

    <name>asd</name>

    <description>example description - 3</description>

</report>


asd.py



import xml.etree.ElementTree as ET

tree = ET.parse('asd.xml')

root = tree.getroot()



for report_1 in root:

    for report_2 in report_1:

        if result.tag == 'name':

            if result.text == 'asd':

                print ?


I find the ones that are equal to asd by retrieving the value from tag name "name". but I cannot access the same level decription value.



I want output



name: asd

description: example description - 1

name: asd

description: example description - 3

          Your file produces an error:




          ParseError: junk after document element: line 5, column 0




          Should it look like this:



          <data>
          
    <report>
          
        <name>asd</name>

          You could use the following code:

flag = False
          

          
for report in root:
          
    flag = False
          
    for row in report:
          
        if row.tag == 'name' and row.text == 'asd':

            Your file produces an error:




            ParseError: junk after document element: line 5, column 0




            Should it look like this:



            <data>
            
    <report>
            
        <name>asd</name>
            
        <description>example description - 1</description>
            
    </report>
            
    <report>
            
        <name>dsa</name>
            
        <description>example description - 2</description>
            
    </report>
            
    <report>
            
        <name>asd</name>
            
        <description>example description - 3</description>
            
    </report>
            
</data>


            You could use the following code:



            import xml.etree.ElementTree as ET
            

            
tree = ET.parse('asd.xml')
            

            
root = tree.getroot()
            

            
flag = False
            

            
for report in root:
            
    flag = False
            
    for row in report:
            
        if row.tag == 'name' and row.text == 'asd':
            
            print('name: asd')
            
            flag = True
            
        if flag and row.tag == 'description':
            
            print('description: {}'.format(row.text))


            That would provide you with desired result:



            name: asd
            
description: example description - 1
            
name: asd

On maifest file it showed following warning: Expecting <uses-feature android:name="android.software.leanback" android:required="false" /> tag I have no information about it. And also on default emptyview android project does not use/mention this feature. I know it is required by TV's and such but why its not added by default? Why is this? And Should I concern about it? android unity3d

                    SQL update select statement

                    Image
                    0 I'm trying to update an entry in my database (postgresql). I'm having a problem with updating the query: INSERT INTO prices (price, product_id) SELECT product_price, commn_id FROM products_temp as prod WHERE NOT EXISTS (SELECT * FROM prices od WHERE prod.commn_id = od.product_id) OR prod.product_price != ( SELECT price FROM prices as p WHERE p.product_id = prod.commn_id order by p.end desc LIMIT 1 ) Query works fine when i delete: OR prod.product_price != ( SELECT price FROM prices as p WHERE p.product_id = prod.commn_id order by p.end desc LIMIT 1 ) So it seems to me that it's looping through this operation. My question is, how can I fix it? sql postgresql
