count the item in a list without any numbers and quotations

Hi Everyone,

I have a file as below and want to have a output in the following format (second block). So far I have been able to get the result (please see third block). My code is in last block.

As you can see I am still getting the numbers as well in my output, how can I get rid of that? I searched a lot, but couldnt able to get it.

I still have to write the code for counting the items, but need to get this working first.

Please advise..

Thanks Shyam for the solution. I am now trying to print the output of this program to a file that is provided by the user at the command line.

Below is the code that I am trying to run, but the problem is that it only generates an empty file. Can you please point out the discrepancy in the code.


class WriteObject:
def __init__(self):
self.content = []
def write(self, string):
self.content.append(string)

g= open(sys.argv[2],'w+')
g=WriteObject()
sys.stdout = g
sys.stdout = sys.__stdout__


Thanks
