如果第一个元素和另一个元素相同，则将元组列表切片为列表列表 Python

Question

I have the following list A including tuples, and I would like to slice A into a list of lists as seen in B . The logic is that if the first and the fourth elements of the tuples are repeating, pack the group as a list inside list A .

A = [(1, 'C-30219', 'C-30060', 'C-6235d935d39c258876476e35a7acfd69-1-1', 2),
     (1, 'C-30060', 'C-30022', 'C-6235d935d39c258876476e35a7acfd69-1-1', 3),
     (1, 'C-30022', 'C-30205', 'C-6235d935d39c258876476e35a7acfd69-1-1', 4),
     (3, 'C-30248', 'C-30260', 'C-ac19d0edcf4d4ebe071e8d43be1901e2-1-1', 4),
     (3, 'C-30260', 'C-30108', 'C-ac19d0edcf4d4ebe071e8d43be1901e2-1-1', 5),
     (3, 'C-30108', 'C-30240', 'C-ac19d0edcf4d4ebe071e8d43be1901e2-1-1', 6),
     (5, 'C-30269', 'C-30285', 'C-d0d36bb9f2a7e248638cff9a04065977-1-1', 9),
     (5, 'C-30285', 'C-30109', 'C-d0d36bb9f2a7e248638cff9a04065977-1-1', 10),
     (5, 'C-30109', 'C-30211', 'C-d0d36bb9f2a7e248638cff9a04065977-1-1', 11),
     (5, 'C-30211', 'C-30289', 'C-d0d36bb9f2a7e248638cff9a04065977-1-1', 12),
     (5, 'C-30072', 'C-30375', 'C-710c460e8dfc2b3a523e077b6c6bdb40-1-1', 15),
     (5, 'C-30375', 'C-30095', 'C-710c460e8dfc2b3a523e077b6c6bdb40-1-1', 16)]

Out:

B = [[(1, 'C-30219', 'C-30060', 'C-6235d935d39c258876476e35a7acfd69-1-1', 2),

Here is my attempt, which gives the desired output after a lot of mumbo jumbo. I am seeking a more efficient and Pythonic way to achieve this.

inter = list(set([(i[0],i[3]) for i in A]))
B = {o_t: [] for o_t in inter}
for i in range(1, len(A)):
    if (A[i][0] == A[i-1][0]
        and A[i][3] == A[i-1][3]):
        B[A[i][0],A[i][3]].append(A[i])
        B[A[i][0],A[i][3]].append(A[i-1])
B = {key: sorted(list(set(B[key])), key = lambda x: x[-1]) for key in B.keys()}
list(B.values())

Answer 1

Perfect task for groupby from itertools

from itertools import groupby
A = [(1, 'C-30219', 'C-30060', 'C-6235d935d39c258876476e35a7acfd69-1-1', 2),

B = [list(g) for _,g in groupby(A, key=lambda x: (x[0], x[3]))]

print(B)

output

NOTE : I am assuming that A is sorted by 1st and fourth element. groupby will group a list [1,1,1,2,2,1,3,3] to [(1,1,1), (2,2), (1), (3,3)] . It won't group all the 1's

Below

from collections import defaultdict

data = defaultdict(list)
A = [(1, 'C-30219', 'C-30060', 'C-6235d935d39c258876476e35a7acfd69-1-1', 2),
