Copy/Paste Certain Attributes into a new field

Question

Hello,

I was wondering if it was possible to copy only integers from an existing field in an attribute table and paste them into a newly created field into the same attribute table. Basically, I have an address field that contains the entire address (number and street name) and I would like to separate out a column specifically for the street number.  Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you!

Via field calculation "z" represents your field, so replace it with !YourFieldName! in line 2.

Results should obviously go into an integer field

z = "123 ABC Street"
int("".join([i for i in z if i.isdigit()]))
123
