I have two list from my input form:
ListA: [a,b,c,d] ListB: [1,2,3,4]
How can i strip ListA and ListB so that the first value of ListA will correspond to the first value of ListB and the second of A to sencond of B and so on:
Example: (a,1), (b,2),(c,3),(d,4)
In Python, you'd just use zip: $ python Python 2.2.1 (#1, Jun 25 2002, 10:55:46) [GCC 2.95.3-5 (cygwin special)] on cygwin Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
a = ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd'] b = [1, 2, 3, 4] zip(a, b) [('a', 1), ('b', 2), ('c', 3), ('d', 4)]
I assume you're doing this in a Python script? Try zip. I haven't tried it and I don't know whether zip is considered restricted (not sure why it would be); I'm just saying I haven't tried this from a Python Script inside Zope (although I don't see why it wouldn't work). You could also just iterate over one of the lists and append a tuple of its element and the corresponding element from the other list into a new list. assert len(a) == len(b) new_list = [] for i in range(len(a)): new_list.append((a[i], b[i])) // m -
