Hi!
I might be missing the obvious, or I may have found something more complicated
than the VBA I am used to. Could it be I need to use a maths library?
For a given list of k items I'd like to turn it into an k*k matrix of item
pairs.
List_sample = ['a', 'b', 'c']
Output:
aa ab ac
ba bb bc
ca cb cc
I'd like to have 2 hooks into this process
1. I want the opportunity to use a value pair each time they are generated
(because I need to send these to an api and get a number back to put into a
temporary list or dictionary - still tbd).
2. I'd also like to know each time a row is completed so I can bank that
temporary list to a database table. Else build one big list and do it at the
end, I'm still figuring this out.
#Code I've tried:
stn_count = len(stn_list_short)
for rowcount in range (0, stn_count):
for colcount in range (0, stn_count):
print stn_list_long[rowcount] stn_list_long[colcount]
I've found itertools, tee, and product and felt I was getting warmer. I'm still
looking, but any pointers would be appreciated!
Thanks,
Andy
