I have a list of tuples that looks something like this:
tuples = [('a', 10, 11), ('b', 13, 14), ('a', 1, 2)]
Is there a way that i can join them together based on the first index of every tuple to make a each tuple contain 5 elements. I know for a fact there isn't more that 2 of each letter in the tuples, Ie more than 2 'a's or 'b's in the entire list. The other requirement is to use Python2.6. I cant figure out the logic to it. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Desired Output:
tuples = [('a', 10, 11, 1, 2), ('b', 13, 14, 0, 0)]
I have tried creating a new list of first elements and adding the other elements to it but then I only have a list and not list of tuples.
EDIT to provide previous tried code,
Created a new list: templist, resultList = [], []
Populate templist with the first element in every tuple:
for i in tuples:
templist.append(i[0])
elemlist = list(set(templist))
for i in elemlist:
for j in tuples:
if i == j[0]:
resultlist.append((i, j[1], j[2]))
This just returns the same list of tuples, How can i hold onto it and append every j[1] j[2]
that corresponds to correct j[0]
Assuming there are only one or two of every letter in the list as stated:
import itertools
tuples = [('a', 10, 11), ('b', 13, 14), ('a', 1, 2)]
result = []
key = lambda t: t[0]
for letter,items in itertools.groupby(sorted(tuples,key=key),key):
items = list(items)
if len(items) == 1:
result.append(items[0]+(0,0))
else:
result.append(items[0]+items[1][1:])
print(result)
Output:
[('a', 10, 11, 1, 2), ('b', 13, 14, 0, 0)]
