Convert rows of beautiful table to list

I would like to convert the rows of beautifultable to elements of a list while excluding the header e.g:

 [['A',2,4], ['B',2,5], ['C',2,1]]
Solution

  • Just call

    list(map(list, table))

    the full code:

    from beautifultable import BeautifulTable
table = BeautifulTable()
table.column_headers = ["c1", "c2", "c3"]
table.append_row(['A', 2, 4])
table.append_row(['B', 2, 5])
table.append_row(['C', 2, 6])
print(table)
# it will print
# +----+----+----+
# | c1 | c2 | c3 |
# +----+----+----+
# | A  | 2  | 4  |
# +----+----+----+
# | B  | 2  | 5  |
# +----+----+----+
# | C  | 2  | 6  |
# +----+----+----+
li = list(map(list, table))
print(li)
# it will print
# [['A', 2, 4], ['B', 2, 5], ['C', 2, 6]]
