ok, so I have a list of lists
list = [['a','b','c'], ['1','2','3'], ['x','y','z']]
and I want to edit the first item of each list so it has a symbol before it. A "?" in this example. I figure I can use list comprehension to do this. Something similar to this:
list = ['?'+x for x in i[0] for i in list]
But that just gives me an error. This list comprehension stuff confuses me, how do I do it?
做
l = [['?' + i[0]] + i[1:] for i in l] (l is the list you pass in)
First of all, don't name a variable list
; you are now masking the built-in list()
type , and can easily lead to bugs if you expect list()
to still be that type elsewhere in your code.
To prepend a string to the first element of each nested list, use a simple list comprehension:
outerlist = [['?' + sub[0]] + sub[1:] for sub in outerlist]
This builds a new list from the nested list, by concatenating a one-element list with the first element altered, plus the remainder of the sublist.
Demo:
>>> outerlist = [['a','b','c'], ['1','2','3'], ['x','y','z']]
>>> [['?' + sub[0]] + sub[1:] for sub in outerlist]
[['?a', 'b', 'c'], ['?1', '2', '3'], ['?x', 'y', 'z']]
>>> [['?' + el if i==0 else el for i,el in enumerate(subl)] for subl in L]
[['?a', 'b', 'c'], ['?1', '2', '3'], ['?x', 'y', 'z']]
Also, if you expect to modify initial list, you can modify it inplace without creating a new one:
>>> for sublist in L:
sublist[0] = '?' + sublist[0]
>>> L
[['?a', 'b', 'c'], ['?1', '2', '3'], ['?x', 'y', 'z']]
This should work:
>>> l = [['a','b','c'], ['1','2','3'], ['x','y','z']]
>>> [["?"+a,b,c] for [a,b,c] in l]
[['?a', 'b', 'c'], ['?1', '2', '3'], ['?x', 'y', 'z']]
