how to turn multiple lines into multiple lists in python?

I have a file with lines look like this:

"[36.147315849999998, -86.7978174] 6 2011-08-28 19:45:11 @maryreynolds85 That is my life, lol."

"[37.715399429999998, -89.21166221] 6 2011-08-28 19:45:41 Ate more veggie and fruit than meat for the first time in my life"

i have tried to strip these lines and split them, then i tried to strip substring in every list with punctuations.

 with open('aabb.txt') as t:
        for Line in t:
            splitline = Line.strip()  
            splitline2 = splitline.split()  
            for words in splitline2:
                words = words.strip("!#$%&'()*+,-./:;?@[\]^_`{|}~")
                words = words.lower()

what shoul I do to turn these lines into two lists look like this:

'["36.147315849999998","-86.7978174","6","2011-08-28","19:45:11","maryreynolds85","that","is","my","life","lol"]'

'["37.715399429999998","-89.21166221","6","2011-08-28","19:45:41","ate","more","veggie","and","fruit","than","meat","for","the","time","in","my","life"]'

You are already creating words that you need on the list. You have to just create a list and add it to the list.

with open('aabb.txt') as t:
        for Line in t:
            list=[]
            splitline = Line.strip()  
            splitline2 = splitline.split()  
            for words in splitline2:
                words = words.strip("!#$%&'()*+,-./:;?@[\]^_`{|}~")
                words = words.lower()
                list.append(words)
            print(list)

You can also create a list of list for each line and use it for your needs.

with open('aabb.txt') as t:
        root_list=[]
        for Line in t:
            temp_list=[]
            splitline = Line.strip()  
            splitline2 = splitline.split()  
            for words in splitline2:
                words = words.strip("!#$%&'()*+,-./:;?@[\]^_`{|}~")
                words = words.lower()
                temp_list.append(words)
            root_list.append(temp_list)
        print(root_list)

are all your data in the same format? if yes, use regex from re library.

import re
your_str="[36.147315849999998, -86.7978174] 6 2011-08-28 19:45:11 @maryreynolds85 That is my life, lol."
reg_data= re.compile(r"\[(.*),(.*)\] (.*)")
your_reg_grp=re.match(reg_data,your_str)
if your_reg_grp:
  print(your_reg_grp.groups())

#this should put everything in the list except the parts outside the square brackets, you can split the last one by split(" ") then make a new list.

grp1=your_reg_grp.groups()
grp2=grp1[-1].split(" ")

Combine grp1[:-1] and grp2
