Adding lists
Published: Wednesday, Dec 26, 2007 Last modified: Monday, Dec 9, 2024
import operator
>>> list1 = [1,0]
>>> list2 = [1,2]
>>> list3 = list1 + list2
>>> list3
[1, 0, 1, 2]
Ok, that is one way, here is another:
>>> list3 = map(operator.add, list1,list2)
>>> list3
[2, 2]
Another comment from the very helpful #python, is:
08:40 < deltab_> Numeric.add(list1, list2)
08:43 < tarook> get pynumeric
14:02 < hendry> How would I combine/append ['hi', 'there'] and ['!', '.'] to ['hi!', 'there.'] ?
14:03 < Jerub> hendry: map(operator.add, l1, l2)
14:03 < moshez> hendry: [x+y for (x,y) in zip(l1, l2)]
