from ds import select

data = {'a': 1,

                     'bb': {'bba': 5,
                            'a': 'z'}}],
        'c': 7,
        'd': [2, 3, {'ba': True}]}

select(data, '/a')  # [1, 'z']
select(data, '/bb/a')  # ['z']
select(data, '/b/0')  # [2]
select(data, '/b/<float>')  # [4.0]
select(data, '/<str>a')  # ['z']
select(data, '/ba')  # [4.0, True]
