How to get some specific items from a list?

Question

I've been trying to solve this problem but I haven't come up with anything that works.

So if I have a list like that

List1 = [3, 'Mike', 5, 'Matt', 'Dillion', 'April', 9, 'Ramos']

Is there a possible way to output

Matt
Dillon
April

Basically, just the strings or names between integers.

Answer 2

I made it by finding the indices of integer elements and copy elements from <List1> within the range of the second index and the third.

Answer 4

Use type(object) to verify an object's type

List1 = [3, "Mike", 5, "Matt", "Dillion", "April", 9, "Ramos"]
for item in List1:
if type( item ) is str:
print( item )

Answer 5

Ghassan Al Khoury on what condition do you want to get specific names?

Answer 6

I need to get the names which are after the second lowest number which is 5 and then stops when it reaches another number which is 9

Answer 7

Thanks everyone for the help. I really appreciate it.

Answer 8

Ipang I really appreciate your time for responding to my question. However, I know how to do that. I'm not asking to get all of the names. I'm asking to get specific names between ints.

The output should be:

Matt
Dillion
April

Answer 9

I saw you wrote "Basically, just the strings or names between integers." that's how I interpreted it.

Never mind, can you tell me what qualifies a name then?

Answer 10

Oh now I get what you mean by "between the integers"

Can the numbers be randomly placed though? I mean, what if 9 comes before 5? is it possible?

Answer 11

Ipang no, it should be from the smallest to the biggest lol

Answer 12

Ghassan Al Khoury I might be able to help you, if you could provide a bit more information about how the code should work. For example, say
List1 = ["Karen", 5, "Mike", "Matt", 3, 9, "Ramses", 12, 0, "Orb", 0, "Apple"].
What should be the expected output?
