Thank you all for the replies.
The solution using Python 3's syntax look very intuitive.
Thanks Tim, Arnaud for the idea (I am using 2.x)

Hello
I am still learning Python, and have a question, perhaps I can shorten
the code:
L = (
(1, 2, 3),
(4,),
(5,),
(6, 7)
)
for x in L:
print x
What I want, is to write the for loop, something like this:
for (first_element, the_rest) in L:
print first_element
for x in the_rest:
# now access the rest of the elements
I know I can :
for x in L:
first = x[0]
rest = x[1:]
....
Probably that is not possible, but just asking.
Thanks,
Elias
Using slicing + list comprehension with python 2.x
for first, rest in [(e[0],e[1:]) for e in L]:
print first
print rest
1
(2, 3)
4
()
5
()
6
(7,)
But honestly, the code you provided is just fine.
