I have a Text file as below:

Education: askdjbnakjfbuisbrkjsbvxcnbvfiuregifuksbkvjb.iasgiufdsegiyvskjdfbsldfgdTechnical skills : java,j2ee etc.,work done: oaugafiuadgkfjwgeuyrfvskjdfviysdvfhsdf,aviysdvwuyevfahjvshgcsvdfs,bvisdhvfhjsvjdfvshjdvhfjvxjhfvhjsdbvfkjsbdkfg

I would like to extract only the heading names such as Education,Technical Skills etc.

the code is :

with open("aks.txt") as infile, open("fffm",'w') as outfile:copy = Falsefor line in infile:if line.strip() == "Technical Skills":copy =Trueelif line.strip() == "Workdone":copy = Trueelif line.strip() ==  "Education":copy = Falseelif copy:outfile.write(line)fh = open("fffm.txt", 'r')contents = fh.read()len(contents)

To get just the headings from your text file, you could use the follows:

import rewith open('aks.txt') as f_input:headings = re.findall(r'(.*?)\s*:', f_input.read())print headings

This would display the following:

['Education', 'Technical skills', 'work done']
