hello!
I want to change a nested tuple like:
tuple = (('goat', 90, 100), ('cat', 80, 80), ('platypus', 60, 800))
into:
tuple = (('goat', 90), ('cat', 80), ('platypus', 60))
in other words, slice the first elements of every index
Any ideas on
Thanks,
I have been trying this:
tuple = (('goat', 90, 100), ('cat', 80, 80), ('platypus', 60, 800))
index = 0
newtuple = ()
for item in tuple:
newtuple = newtuple + tuple[index][0:2]
index += 1
print newtuple
but it returns:
('goat', 90, 'cat', 80, 'platypus', 60)
which is no longer
maybe list(tuple)[0:2])) will
get you what you
want but I don’t know how to
change it back to a tuple.
I’m just starting out but
I would be interested also.
