Fixing Data Format with Python Generator

How can I fix the data format from a file using a Python generator?

How can I correctly convert JSON and Tab-separated values (TSV) lines into dicts in Python?

Why am I receiving an IndexError when trying to parse the data from the file?

Guidance on Fixing Data Format Issue:

The generator function name is gen_fix_data, not gen_fixed_data. Please update the function name to gen_fix_data.

To illustrate the code for fixing the data format, you can refer to the corrected version as shown below:

Illustrating the Program:

import json

import pandas as pd

        
def gen_fix_data(data_iterator):  
    for each_line in data_iterator:      
        if each_line.startswith('{'):           
            convertedDict = json.loads(each_line)           
            yield convertedDict       
        elif each_line.startswith('\t'):           
            values = each_line.replace('\n', '').split('\t')           
            Dict = {"company": values[0], "catch_phrase": values[1], "phone": values[2],
                    "timezone": values[3], "client_count": values[4]}           
            yield Dict

with open('assets/companies_small_set.data', 'r') as broken_data:    
    df = pd.DataFrame(data=gen_fix_data(broken_data))
print(df)
