Splitting List in Pandas Python

Question

I have a list which output like this

[                   0
0                 PV
1               Conf
2                 32
3                 PF
4               Test
5             Output
6           I/O Test,                    0
0             PVER-I
1          PVER-Conf
2                BFT
3             PVER-F
4           COM Test
5  Output State Test]

I want to split it as 0 so list output should be

[[0 PV, 1 Conf,2 32,.....],[0 PVER-1,......5 Output State Test]]

I tried doing this My previous 2 line codes are

    dfo= pd.DataFrame(df_z9[0].str.split().values.tolist())
    list.append(dfo)

I did append here because every iteration a new list was created in dfo to add this to the list i used append and then I tried to split it at 0

for item in list 
    item.split('0', 1)[0]

It says this error Dataframe has no variable split

You can use the split operation for strings , but not for dataframes . Assuming that your original list contains string elements, you can try to use split directly on this list (without the conversion to a dataframe ):

out_list = [[]]
sublist = 0
for item in list:
  if item.split('0')[0] == '' and item is not list[0]:
      out_list.append([])
      sublist += 1
  out_list[sublist].append(item)

This will append a new sublist to the output list every time the condition is met (except for the first time).
