Write code using find() and string slicing (see section 6.10) to extract the number at the end of the line below. Convert the extracted value to a floating point number and print it out.

6.5.py

text = "X-DSPAM-Confidence:    0.8475";
startPos = text.find(':')
piece = text[startPos+1:]
end = float(piece)
print(end)

3 lines:
text = "X-DSPAM-Confidence: 0.8475"
textNum=text.find('0')
print(float(text[textNum:len(text)]))

2 Lines: Better :)

text = "X-DSPAM-Confidence: 0.8475";
print(float(text[text.find(':')+1:]))

1 Line
print(float("X-DSPAM-Confidence: 0.8475"["X-DSPAM-Confidence: 0.8475".find(':')+1:]))

Smaller by 2 chars.
print(float("X-DSPAM-Confidence: 0.8475"["X-DSPAM-Confidence: 0.8475".find('0'):]))

b=float(text[a+1:].lstrip())
print(b)

print(text)
