Python Script for Even Numbers | Dataford Interview Questions

A Vectorworks worksheet or Marionette workflow may provide object metadata as one text string. Write a function that extracts every integer from the string and returns the sum of the even integers.

An integer is an optional + or - sign followed by one or more decimal digits. Integers may be separated by spaces, punctuation, or words. A number is included when its numeric value is divisible by 2. Return 0 when the string contains no integers or no even integers.

Formal Specification

Implement sum_even_numbers(text).

Input: text, a non-null Python string containing zero or more signed integer tokens.
Output: A Python integer equal to the sum of all even integer tokens.
Each occurrence counts separately, including repeated values.
Values such as -8 and +12 are valid integers. Decimal values are not part of the input format.

Constraints

0 <= len(text) <= 10^5
The input contains at most 10^4 integer tokens
Each integer has at most 10 digits, excluding its optional sign
Integer tokens are separated according to the stated input format

Function Signature

def sum_even_numbers(text):
