How to append two-dimensional python list without for loop?

Question

Let's suppose that I have 3 python two-dimensional lists ( data_1 , data_2 , data_3 ) of 10x5 dimensions. I want to make one list ( all_data ) from them with 30x5 dimensions. For now, I am doing this by applying the following:

data_1 = [[1, 2, 3, 4, 5], [6, 7, 8, 9, 10], ..., [46, 47, 48, 49, 50]]
data_2 = [[101, 102, 103, 104, 105], [106, 107, 108, 109, 110], ..., [146, 147, 148, 149, 150]]
data_3 = [[201, 202, 203, 204, 205], [206, 207, 208, 209, 210], ..., [246, 247, 248, 249, 250]]
all_data = []
for index, item in enumerate(data_1):
    all_data.append(item)

for index, item in enumerate(data_2):
    all_data.append(item)

for index, item in enumerate(data_3):
    all_data.append(item)

If I simply do something like this:

all_data.append(data_1)
all_data.append(data_2)
all_data.append(data_3)

then I get a list of 3x10x5 which is not what I want.

So can I create a 30x5 list by appending three 10x5 lists without using any for loop?

Answer 1

You can just extend your list.

data = []
data.extend(d1)
data.extend(d2)
data.extend(d3)

Answer 2

Simply write:

all_data = data_1 + data_2 + data_3

If you want to merge all the corresponding sublists of these lists, you can write:

# function that merges all sublists in single list
def flatten(l):
    return [el for subl in l for el in subl]

# zipped - is a list of tuples of corresponding items (our deep sublists) of all the lists
zipped = zip(data_1, data_3, data_3)

# merge tuples to get single list of rearranges sublists
all_data = flatten(zipped)

Answer 3

怎么样：

all_data = data_1 + data_2 + data_3

Answer 4

This should work:

data=[]
data[len(data):] = data1
data[len(data):] = data2
data[len(data):] = data3

Answer 5

In case you don't mind it being lazy, you could also do

import itertools

all_data = itertools.chain(data1, data2, data3)
