Answer 1

Bah, this is so easy to do in Python, why not share it with you?

def filtered(lines):
    for line in lines:
        if line.startswith('Student:') or line.startswith('Your score for this lab:'):
            yield line.rstrip().split()[-1]

with open('test.txt', 'r') as f:
    for student, score in zip(*[filtered(f)]*2):
        print(student, score)
