Code used in this Python Code Clip:
nested = [[1,2,3],[4,5,6],[7,8,9]]
Depth 2 flatten with list comprehension
flattened = [num for sublist in nested for num in sublist]
print(flattened)
Depth 2 flatten with for loops
flattened2 = []
for sublist in nested:
for num in sublist:
flattened2.append(num)
print(flattened2)
Flatten with numpy
import numpy as np
np.array(nested).flatten()
Nested lists greater than depth 2
nested3 = [nested, nested]
Flatten depth 3 nested with numpy
import numpy as np
np.array(nested3).flatten()
Add extra sublists as extra loops:
[num for sub1 in nested3 for sub2 in sub1 for num in sub2]
Flatten lists with unequal levels of nesting
unequal_nest = [1 , [2, 3], [[4,5],[6, 7]]]
def flatten_list(x):
for item in x:
if type(item) in [list]:
for num in flatten_list(item):
yield(num)
else:
yield(item)
list(flatten_list(unequal_nest))
Note: YouTube does not allow greater than or less than symbols in the text description, so the code above will not be exactly the same as the code shown in the video! I will use Unicode large ＜ and ＞ symbols in place of the standard sized ones. .
