Changing Array of elements to multiple array of elements
-4
How do I split seperated elements in an array to new elements with separated elements within them.
The idea is to change this
[ "Tiger Nixon, System Architect, Edinburgh, 5421, 2011/04/25", "Garrett Winters, Accountant, Tokyo, 422, 2011/07/25" ]
to this
[
[ "Tiger Nixon", "System Architect", "Edinburgh", "5421", "2011/04/25" ],
[ "Garrett Winters", "Accountant", "Tokyo", "8422", "2011/07/25"]
]
I tried this code but it didnt work. I set my_string to the top array.
my_list = my_string.split(",")
python

Try this:
# initial list
mystring = [ "Tiger Nixon, System Architect, Edinburgh, 5421, 2011/04/25", "Garrett Winters, Accountant, Tokyo, 422, 2011/07/25" ]
# empty list to store new values
array =
# loop through the list and split each value
for i in mystring:
array.append(i.split(",")) # splits into list and appends it a new list
print(array) # prints the resultant array
You can also use the below one liner list comprehension method.
mystring = [string.split(",") for string in mystring]
Output:
[['Tiger Nixon', ' System Architect', ' Edinburgh', ' 5421', ' 2011/04/25'], ['Garrett Winters', ' Accountant', ' Tokyo', ' 422', ' 2011/07/25']]
