Hi,
What is the better way to process data in a list?
Depends on what you mean by "better". Could mean faster, smaller, more
readable, or ?? Get clear on your goals.
Make the changes in place, for example
somelist = [1,2,3,4]
for x in range(len(somelist)):
somelist[x] = somelist[x] + 1
Or would making a new list like
somelist = [1,2,3,4]
newlist = []
for x in somelist:
newlist.append(x + 1)
Or is there another way of doing this kind of things. Pointers to
online resources are most welcome :-)
Take a look at Numerical Python http://numpy.scipy.org/, which works
much like APL:
>>> /print a/
[1 2 3]
>>> /print a + 3/
[4 5 6]
