Convert a list of strings to a list of tuples in python

Question

I have a list of strings in this format:

[\'5,6,7\', \'8,9,10\']

I would like to convert this into the format:

[(5,6,7), (8         


        

Answer 1

Your question requires the grouping of elements. Hence, an appropriate solution would be:

l = ['5','6','7', '8','9','10']
[(lambda x: tuple(int(e) for e in x))((i,j,k)) for (i, j, k) in zip(l[0::3], l[1::3], l[2::3])]

This outputs:

[(5, 6, 7), (8, 9, 10)]

As desired.
