Hi, I couldn't get idea how to make the next thing
>>> n=4 #split into so long parts >>> l = (1,2,3,4,5,1,2,3,4,5,1,2,3,4,5) #this is the tuple to split >>> [l[i:i+n] for i in range(0,len(l),n)] [(1, 2, 3, 4), (5, 1, 2, 3), (4, 5, 1, 2), (3, 4, 5)] But I have to make it like this [(1, 2, 3, 4), (5, 1, 2, 3), (4, 5, 1, 2), (3, 4, 5, default)] because i use it later in this >>> result = [l[i:i+n] for i in range(0,len(l),n)] >>> zip(*result) [(1, 5, 4, 3), (2, 1, 5, 4), (3, 2, 1, 5)] and as you can see it, the last element is missing here.
