如何在python中添加和显示随机生成的列表列表的垂直元素？

Question

The following simple code will generate a list of lists of three elements and the total of the elements in each list on the same line.

import random
for i in xrange(3):
    my_randoms1 = [random.randrange(1,6,1) for _ in range (3)]
    print my_randoms1,"\t", sum(my_randoms1)

Now the question is: How could I add the vertical corresponding elements of all lists and display the sums in a new list on top of all lists as [T1,T2,T3]? Thanks

[T1,T2,T3]

[1, 1, 2]   4
[5, 3, 4]   12
[5, 1, 5]   11

If you're going to be doing anything else with these lists, you probably want to store them in some sort of data structure, possibly using Numpy to place them in a matrix.

The simplest way to do just this is to have some sort of variable, say col_sums = [0,0,0] (initialized before your loop) and add the values of each random list as it's generated. You can do this with nested loops but if you want to get fancy, you can use something like:

col_sums = map(sum, zip(col_sums, my_randoms))

zip() takes your old sums and your random values and gives you a tuple holding the N th value of each list stuck together. For example, the first iteration, you'd have col_sums = [0,0,0] and zip(col_sums, my_randoms) would give you [(0,1), (0,1), (0,2)] . map ping sum across that list gives you a new list like [1, 1, 2] . If you put this in every iteration, you'll have a nice sum built up at the end.
