I have lists inside a dictionary:
Number_of_lists=3 #user sets this value, can be any positive integer
My_list={}
for j in range(1,Number_of_lists+1):
My_list[j]=[(x,y,z)]
The Number_of_lists
is a variable set by the user. Without knowing beforehand the value set by the user, i would like to finally have a merged list of all dictionary lists. For example if Number_of_lists=3
and the corresponding lists are My_list[1]=[(1,2,3)]
, My_list[2]=[(4,5,6)]
, My_list[3]=[(7,8,9)]
the result would be:
All_my_lists=My_list[1]+My_list[2]+My_list[3]
where:
All_my_lists=[(1,2,3),(4,5,6),(7,8,9)]
.
So what i'm trying to do is automate the above procedure for all possible:
Number_of_lists=n #where n can be any positive integer
I'm a bit lost up to now trying to use an iterator to add the lists up and always fail. I'm a python beginner and this is a hobby of mine, so if you answer please explain everything in your answer i'm doing this to learn, i'm not asking from you to do my homework :)
@codebox (look at the comments below) correctly pointed out that My_List
as displayed in my code is in fact a dictionary and not a list. Be careful if you use any of the code.
use a list comprehension:
>>> Number_of_lists=3
>>> My_list={}
>>> for j in range(1,Number_of_lists+1):
My_list[j]=(j,j,j)
>>> All_my_lists=[My_list[x] for x in My_list]
>>> print(All_my_lists)
[(1, 1, 1), (2, 2, 2), (3, 3, 3)]
All_my_lists=[My_list[x] for x in My_list]
is equivalent to:
All_my_lists=[]
for key in My_list:
All_my_lists.append(My_list[key])
