I have a file of names and ages,
john 25
bob 30
john bob 35
Here is what I have so far
from pyparsing import *
data = '''
john 25
bob 30
john bob 35
'''
name = Word(alphas + Optional(' ') + alphas)
rowData = Group(name +
Suppress(White(" ")) +
Word(nums))
table = ZeroOrMore(rowData)
print table.parseString(data)
the output I am expecting is
[['john', 25], ['bob', 30], ['john bob', 35]]
Here is the stacktrace
