Hi there I have a list of dummy objects which have the attributes 'location', 'name', 'gender'. Now I want to rebuild this list in order to avoid redundancies on objects with the same 'location'.
Example: #------------------------------------------------------------------ class Dummy: pass a = Dummy() a.location = 'tokio' a.name = 'john' a.gender = 'm' b = Dummy() b.location = 'tokio' b.name = 'peter' b.gender = 'm' c = Dummy() c.location = 'madrid' c.name = 'susan' c.gender = 'f' d = Dummy() d.location = 'london' d.name = 'alex' d.gender = 'm' persons = [a, b, c, d] print "loc name gender" print "---------------------" for obj in persons: print "%s - %s - %s" % (obj.location, obj.name, obj.gender) #------------------------------------------------------------------ The output reads like this: loc name gender --------------------- tokio john m tokio peter m madrid susan f london alex m I want to create this list (where name and gender are lists): loc name gender ----------------------------- tokio [john, peter] [m] madrid [susan] [f] london [alex] [m] How can I do this? Thanks in advance. Nico -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
