Python: Unique values in a given list of lists
Python List: Exercise - 183 with Solution
Write a Python program to get the unique values in a given list of lists.
Sample Solution:
Python Code:
def unique_values_in_list_of_lists(lst):
result = set(x for l in lst for x in l)
return list(result)
nums = [[1,2,3,5], [2,3,5,4], [0,5,4,1], [3,7,2,1], [1,2,1,2]]
print("Original list:")
print(nums)
print("Unique values of the said list of lists:")
print(unique_values_in_list_of_lists(nums))
chars = [['h','g','l','k'], ['a','b','d','e','c'], ['j','i','y'], ['n','b','v','c'], ['x','z']]
print("\nOriginal list:")
print(chars)
print("Unique values of the said list of lists:")
print(unique_values_in_list_of_lists(chars))
Sample Output:
Original list: [[1, 2, 3, 5], [2, 3, 5, 4], [0, 5, 4, 1], [3, 7, 2, 1], [1, 2, 1, 2]] Unique values of the said list of lists: [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7] Original list: [['h', 'g', 'l', 'k'], ['a', 'b', 'd', 'e', 'c'], ['j', 'i', 'y'], ['n', 'b', 'v', 'c'], ['x', 'z']] Unique values of the said list of lists: ['e', 'd', 'c', 'b', 'x', 'k', 'n', 'h', 'g', 'j', 'i', 'a', 'l', 'y', 'v', 'z']

Python: Tips of the Day
Given a predicate function, fn, and a prop string, this curried function will then take an object to inspect by calling the property and passing it to the predicate:
Example:
def tips_check_prop(fn, prop): return lambda obj: fn(obj[prop]) check_age = tips_check_prop(lambda x: x >= 25, 'age') user = {'name': 'Owen', 'age': 25} print(check_age(user))
