Convert list of string to list of synsets

Convert List of String to List of objects of type synset.

I have tried to split and add but was not able to type cast it to sysnet type.

    inp="[Synset<'history.n.02'>,Synset<'long.n.02'>]"

I should get output as 

    [Synset<'history.n.02'>,Synset<'long.n.02'>]

such that output should be list of synsets. For understanding synsets

Solution

  • You can use wn.synset()

    inp="[Synset<'history.n.02'>,Synset<'long.n.02'>]"
inp=inp[1:-1]
for i in inp.split(','):
    val= i[8:-2]
    print wn.synset(val)
