Python: Convert a given list of strings into list of lists using map function

Python map: Exercise-16 with Solution

Write a Python program to convert a given list of strings into list of lists using map function.

Sample Solution:

Python Code:

def strings_to_listOflists(str):
    result = map(list, str)
    return list(result)

colors = ["Red", "Green", "Black", "Orange"]
print('Original list of strings:')
print(colors)
print("\nConvert the said list of strings into list of lists:")
print(strings_to_listOflists(colors))

Sample Output:

Original list of strings:
['Red', 'Green', 'Black', 'Orange']

Convert the said list of strings into list of lists:
[['R', 'e', 'd'], ['G', 'r', 'e', 'e', 'n'], ['B', 'l', 'a', 'c', 'k'], ['O', 'r', 'a', 'n', 'g', 'e']]

Python: Tips of the Day

Clamps num within the inclusive range specified by the boundary values x and y:

Example:

def tips_clamp_num(num,x,y):
  return max(min(num, max(x, y)), min(x, y))
print(tips_clamp_num(2, 4, 6))
print(tips_clamp_num(1, -1, -6))

Output:
