Description

Session Goal

The session aimed to implement a regex-based solution for extracting phone numbers from text files in Python, focusing on Argentine numbers.

Key Activities

• Developed a regex pattern to extract phone numbers, accommodating various formats and separators.
• Implemented a Python script to read text files and apply the regex pattern for phone number extraction.
• Addressed potential file handling errors, including file not found scenarios, by providing error handling mechanisms.

Achievements

• Successfully extracted phone numbers using the developed regex pattern.
• Created a robust Python script capable of handling different phone number formats and file reading errors.

Pending Tasks

• Further testing with diverse text samples to ensure regex pattern robustness.
• Integration of the script into a larger data processing pipeline if needed.
