Is this usable?
Assuming you transform your 3 tuples into a list of start-end 2 tuples and
sort them for lowest to highest, then
lst=[(55,58,52),(20,22,18),(17,21,13),(60,63,57)]
a=[ (l[2],l[1]) for l in lst ]
a.sort()
a=[(1,5),(4,9),(10,12),(11,15),(16,19)]
i=[ (pair,a[a.index(pair)+1]) for pair in a[:-1] if
a[a.index(pair)+1][0]<pair[1]]
i
[((13, 21), (18, 22)), ((52, 58), (57, 63))]
?
