Appending a Suffix To A URL List

[Pazman 32]

I was wondering if someone could possibly offer some insight (in detail) as to how I go about this.

I really appreciate any help here cause I've been beating myself up on this for a few days

 

List A) I have a list of 270 URLs

List  B )   I also have a list of 128 unique suffixes to add (the number in List B changes and can be larger or smaller than List A)

 

So what I want to do is this:

 

1) Based upon the the TOTAL in LIST B = Randomly (possibly shuffle List A) and grab 128 URLs from List A

2) Now Append to the end of the 128 URLs from List A the 128 suffixes from List B

 

I know this is a form of concatenate BUT these are 2 unique lists that are scraped and I'm trying not to have to download to a file. I want to have the files concatenated within ubot while the program is running.

 

 

List A will look like:

 

http://cnn.com/

http://foxnews.com/

http://abc.com/

http://cbs.com/

http://nbc.com/

 

List B will book like:

 

2258

159

89654

 

So in this example the output will look like:

 

http://foxnews.com/2258

http://abc.com/159

http://cbs.com/89654

So what has to happen is based upon the fact there are (3) in List B - Ubot will Randomly select only (3) from List A and then append the digits from List B to the end of list A

 

******Notes: Sometimes the List B will have a greater quantity  and will have to RE-use List A until the complete List B is associated to a URL from List A
 

I'm not wanting any duplicate from List A UNLESS List B is larger than List A

 

Thanks so much!

Hello, check out the code below -This might be what you're looking for. As I Am quite new to Ubot - therefore the code is rather long - (and may not work in all the situations you mention above, but it should give you some ideas at the least..

 

 

add list to list(%ListA, $list from text("http://cnn.com/
http://foxnews.com/
http://abc.com/
http://cbs.com/
http://nbc.com/
http://xyz.com/", "
"), "Delete", "Global")
add list to list(%ListB, $list from text("2258
159
89654
3658
6598", "
"), "Delete", "Global")
clear list(%AplusB)
if($comparison($list total(%ListA), ">", $list total(%ListB))) {
    then {
        loop while($comparison($list total(%AplusB), "<", $list total(%ListB))) {
            add item to list(%AplusB, "{$next list item(%ListA)}{$next list item(%ListB)}", "Delete", "Global")
        }
    }
    else {
        loop($list total(%ListB)) {
            add item to list(%AplusB, "{$next list item(%ListA)}{$next list item(%ListB)}", "Delete", "Global")
            if($comparison($list position(%ListA), "=", $list total(%ListA))) {
                then {
                    set list position(%ListA, 0)
                }
            }
        }
    }
}
