python - Creating loops from xml data -


please @ following code:

from xml.dom import minidom xmldoc = minidom.parse("c:\users\...\xml") #this address document soccerfeed = xmldoc.getelementsbytagname("soccerfeed")[0]  soccerdocument = soccerfeed.getelementsbytagname("soccerdocument")[0]  competition = soccerdocument.getelementsbytagname("competition")[0]  country = competition.getelementsbytagname("country")[0].firstchild.data  name = competition.getelementsbytagname("name")[0].firstchild.data   season = competition.getelementsbytagname("stat")[1].firstchild.data  matchday = competition.getelementsbytagname('stat')[3].firstchild.data    lst = [country, name, season, "matchday: "+ matchday]     print lst  #match data matchdata = soccerdocument.getelementsbytagname("matchdata")[0]     matchinfo in matchdata:     matchinfo = matchdata.getelementsbytagname("matchinfo")[0]       attendance = matchinfo.getelementsbytagname("attendance")[0].firstchild.data         result = matchinfo.getelementsbytagname("result")[0]        print (matchinfo, "attendance: "+ attendance) 

so wrote code parse data xml file. keep getting following error:

traceback (most recent call last):   file "c:\users\javi\desktop\csvfile.py", line 28, in <module>     matchinfo in matchdata: typeerror: iteration on non-sequence 

how fix this?

loop on return value of getelementsbytagname.

replace following line

matchdata = soccerdocument.getelementsbytagname("matchdata")[0] 

to

matchdata = soccerdocument.getelementsbytagname("matchdata")
