Hi,

i am using a software which uses python as its scripting language. I
want to generate a list of coordinates more or less this way:

for i in (beg, end, step):
     for j in (beg, end, step):
          for k in (beg, end, step):
.........

Coords =  ((i1,j1,k1), (i2,j2,k2), ...,(in,jn.kn))

Your statement of the problem makes it look like all three coordinates cover the same sequence of values. Is that true? Or does i's range (beg, end, step) differ from j's and k's. If they differ, are they all the same length?

You pseudo-code makes it look like you want all combinations, but your sample output does not indicate that. Which is it, [(1,1,1), (2,2,2)] or [(1,1,1), (1,1,2),(1,2,1),(1,2,2), ...]?

Depending on the answers to those questions, one of the following list comprehensions may demonstrate how to achieve a solution.

>>> a = range(2,6,2)
>>> b = range(3,7,2)
>>> c = range(10,14,2)
>>> print a,b,c
[2, 4] [3, 5] [10, 12]
>>> [(i,j,k) for i,j,k in zip(a,b,c)] # Using zip process three lists in lock-step
[(2, 3, 10), (4, 5, 12)]
>>> [(i,j,k) for i in a for j in b for k in c] #Nested loop give all possible combos. [(2, 3, 10), (2, 3, 12), (2, 5, 10), (2, 5, 12), (4, 3, 10), (4, 3, 12), (4, 5, 10), (4, 5, 12)]

Can anyone give me some advice on how to achieve this ? I got a little
idea, but still need to keep working til i get it. Thanks in advance,
