Python - get the last element of each list in a list of lists

Question

My question is quite simple, I have a list of lists :

my_list = [[\'a1\',\'b1\'],[\'a2\',\'b2\'],[\'a3\',\'b3\',\'c3\'],[\'a4\',\'b4\',\'c4\',\'d4\',\'e4\']]         


        

Answer 1

An alternative with map:

last_items = map(lambda x: x[-1], my_list)

or:

from operator import itemgetter
print map(itemgetter(-1), my_list)
