Convert list of tuples to list?
How do I convert
[(1,), (2,), (3,)]
to
[1, 2, 3]
Using simple list comprehension:
e = [(1,), (2,), (3,)]
[i[0] for i in e]
will give you:
[1, 2, 3]
@Levon's solution works perfectly for your case.
As a side note, if you have variable number of elements in the tuples, you can also use chain
from itertools
.
>>> a = [(1, ), (2, 3), (4, 5, 6)]
>>> from itertools import chain
>>> list(chain(a))
[(1,), (2, 3), (4, 5, 6)]
>>> list(chain(*a))
[1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]
>>> list(chain.from_iterable(a)) # More efficient version than unpacking
[1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]
Here is another alternative if you can have a variable number of elements in the tuples:
>>> a = [(1,), (2, 3), (4, 5, 6)]
>>> [x for t in a for x in t]
[1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]
This is basically just a shortened form of the following loops:
result = []
for t in a:
for x in t:
result.append(x)
