Iowa is always spelled out in full (including other states)   There are no 9 digit zip. All are 5 digits   There are only blank separators between address and city name and between most of the elements. The only comma separator is after the state name. Column (:) separators are after the text " Address" and after the text "Phone Number"   Thank you ... View more

I have an address column in my dataset that I wanted to parse to put city and zip code in their separate columns. Positions differ in many of the addresses. Examples of address types in the data are:   1. Address: 321 E 12th St Des Moines Iowa, 50321phone Number: (515) 515-5151 2. Address: 321 Iowa st Boone Iowa, 50321Phone Number: (515) 515-5151 3. Address: 321 Des Moines st Suite 140 Iowa City Iowa, 50321Phone Number: (515) 515-5151   Thanks ... View more
