Try writing the code in a style with fewer side effects. I like using
itertools.groupby for this type of thing (not exactly tested):
from itertools import groupby
List=[['1', 'a', '6'], ['1', 'b', '6'], ['1', 'c', '6'],
['1', 'd', '6'],['2', 'a','6'], ['2', 'b', '6'],
['2', 'c', '6'], ['2', 'd', '6'], ['3', 'a', '6'],
['3','b', '6'], ['4', 'a', '6'], ['4', 'b', '6']]
# retrieve directory name from one of those tuples
def directory_name(t): return t[0]
for dirname,dir_contents in groupby(sorted(List), directory_name):
print 'Directory name:, dirname
for dname2,filename,modtime in dir_contents:
print 'Filename:%s\nmodified time:%s'% (filename, modtime)
The output is:
>>> ## working on region in file /usr/tmp/python-9013z7X...
Directory name: 1
Filename:a
modified time:6
Filename:b
modified time:6
Filename:c
modified time:6
Filename:d
modified time:6
Directory name: 2
Filename:a
modified time:6
Filename:b
modified time:6
Filename:c
modified time:6
Filename:d
modified time:6
Directory name: 3
Filename:a
modified time:6
Filename:b
modified time:6
Directory name: 4
Filename:a
modified time:6
Filename:b
modified time:6
>>>
Is that what you wanted?
