Alan, Steve, future readers,
After some re-reading and hacking I was able to discover the solution. Since I
raised the question here it is :
[['{0}'.format(x+1), x+1] for x in range(size)]
Just to fill out some other refinements for your information, if you're
not planning to do anything special with the string formatting in each
list, you don't really need to call format() when all it's doing is just
making a string representation of the data value. so
'{0}'.format(x+1)
could just be
str(x+1)
Resulting in:
[[str(x+1), x+1] for x in range(size)]
Also, if you didn't like the repeated x+1 in there, you could just
change the range call to go from 1..size directly:
[[str(x), x] for x in range(1,size+1)]
