I have an string like this below:

{'SAM (manager)','MICHAEL (assi)','BEN(Servent)'}

How can I loop through this structure to get the result like this in Javascript

SAM (manager)
MICHAEL (assi) 
BEN (servent)

My python script to get data

for each in rows:
client = each[0] + ' (' + each[1] + ')'
codes.append(client.replace('\t',''))

codes = str(set(codes))
return codes

Not valid in js. – NiVeR May 16 '18 at 18:02
Please post a valid data structure so that we can help you. – Bergi May 16 '18 at 18:04
Your data structure either has to be an array (use square brackets [ and ] instead) or an object with key/value pairs. – Kurt May 16 '18 at 18:05
@Bergi that's the problem. This is the exact data structure I have – sach jot May 16 '18 at 18:05
Where does that come from? – HMR May 16 '18 at 18:06
I have a python script which get's me this data – sach jot May 16 '18 at 18:07
@samscoot So it's a string, not a data structure? – Bergi May 16 '18 at 18:07
@samscoot You should fix your python script to return a JSON text – Bergi May 16 '18 at 18:08
@Bergi ah right – sach jot May 16 '18 at 18:08
The only valid thing that this could be is array of strings. – NiVeR May 16 '18 at 18:08
I have posted my python script which returns me the string above – sach jot May 16 '18 at 18:09

@samscoot Don't use `str()` but rather [`json.dumps`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/json.html#json.dumps). That should get you something to work with easily in the JavaScript – Bergi May 16 '18 at 18:34
