list = [['3'], ['9', '1'], ['5'], ['4'], ['2', '5', '8']]
newList = []
for l in list:
newList.extend(l)
#newList = [3,9,1,5,4,2,5,8]
list=[]
for l in newList:
if l not in list:
list.append(l)
#now list is [3,9,1,5,4,2,8]
list.sort()
#now your list is in sorted order
Then, you can just write a series of for loops to spin off your data however
you like.
