I wrote this code below which aims to concatenate strings with their
respective string length.
I was wondering if there is a shorter, more elegant way to accomplish this task.
Thanks!
animals = ["Dog", "Tiger", "SuperLion", "Cow", "Panda"]
# step one: convert the animal list into a list of lists
animals_lol = []
for animal in animals:
animal_split = animal.split(",")
animals_lol.append(animal_split) >
# step two: collect the length of each string in a separate list
animals_len = []
for animal in animals:
animals_len.append(len(animal))
# step three: append the length of each string to the list of lists
for a, b in enumerate(animals_lol):
b.append(animals_len[a])
print(animals_lol)
[['Dog', 3], ['Tiger', 5], ['SuperLion', 9], ['Cow', 3], ['Panda', 5]]

For a definition of better:-
animals = ["Dog", "Tiger", "SuperLion", "Cow", "Panda"]
animals_lol = []
for animal in animals:
animals_lol.append((animal, len(animal)))
print(animals_lol)
