Solve the following python programming problem given the following code:
# - Commented out original function and replaced with a modified function.
# - The modified function should be able to split also on multiple tab sequences

# def parse_code_with_re(l):
#     a,b = l.strip().split("\t")
#     return tuple(int(o) for o in a.split(' ')), b

import re
def parse_code(l):
    a,b = re.split('\\t+', l)  # - splits on one or more subsequent tabs, should they occur
    return tuple(int(o) for o in a.split(' ')), b[:-1]  # - [:-1] leaves out the newline at the end of each line

label_codes,label_names = zip(*[
    parse_code(l) for l in open(PATH+"label_colors.txt")])

label_codes,label_names = list(label_codes),list(label_names)
Given the above code, generate some markdown instructions for it.

Convert labels
The following loads, parses, and converts the segment labels we need for targets.
In particular we're looking to make the segmented targets into integers for classification purposes.
