Question

Hey this might be a simple question, but i have been stumped on it for awhile =/

I have a string A:

A = ('A:0.1,B:0.2,(C:0.3,D:0.4)E:0.5')

And a corresponding list B, that displays the exact position of each value inside the inner parenthesis of the string A:

B = [12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23]

I want to make a new list, list C that prints the values inside the parenthesis of String A, which is defined by the numbers in list B.

Thanks for the help!

Edit:
My goal is to create a list that just prints what is inside the inner parenthesis, something like this:

C = ('C:0.3,D:0.4')

I will then split at the comma, and input the corresponding 2 strings into another function i have defined, but right now, i just need list C

Answer 1

>>> A = ('A:0.1,B:0.2,(C:0.3,D:0.4)E:0.5')
>>> B = [12 ,13, 14 ,15, 16, 17, 18, 19 ,20 ,21, 22, 23]
>>> C=[A[x] for x in B]
>>> C
['(', 'C', ':', '0', '.', '3', ',', 'D', ':', '0', '.', '4']

EDIT:

>>> A = ('A:0.1,B:0.2,(C:0.3,D:0.4)E:0.5')
>>> C=A[A.find('('):A.find(')')+1]
>>> C
'(C:0.3,D:0.4)'
