So, just to support all kinds of combinations I am appending in a list the “I” values, taking its length, and using slice. Works perfect. Question is, is there a smarter way to achieve this, and a curious question if the documents are on the fly with no preprocessed tag set like “$” how may I do it? From a bunch without EOF isn’t it a classification problem?

Hi Steven, It is nice to see your post. They are nice and I learnt so many things from you. "I" is for index of the loop.
Now my clarification I thought to do "import os" and process files in a loop but that is not my problem statement. I have to make a big lump of text and detect one chunk. Looping over the line number of file I am not using because I may not be able to take the slices-this I need. I thought to give re.findall a try but that is not giving me the slices. Slice spreads here. The power issue of string! I would definitely give it a try. Happy Day Ahead Regards, Subhabrata Banerjee.
