I currently have a list of tuples and I'm trying to count the number of tuples inside my list so I can do other computations but I can't seem to get it to work.
ties = [(84,40,{'variable1' : 0.11225, 'variable2': -0.2581}),
(84,4,{'variable1' : -0.18855, 'variable2': -0.6458}),
(84,23,{'variable1' : 0.05144, 'variable2': -0.7581})]
ties = list((int(j) for i in ties for j in i))
res = len(ties)
#alternatively I also tried
from itertools import chain
res = len(list(map(int, chain.from_iterable(ties))))
The above (both) would throw an error TypeError: 'int' object is not iterable and I don't understand why. Thoughts?
Thanks in advance!
*** Edit ***
Fixed the syntax error, now it works, thank you everyone for your suggestions
Tuples can't be iterated over. Hence you are getting the error when trying to execute the code. Also, the following code that you posted is giving a syntax error.
ties = [(84,40,{'variable1' : 0.11225, 'variable2': -0.2581}), 84,4,{'variable1' : -0.18855, 'variable2': -0.6458}), 84,23,{'variable1' : 0.05144, 'variable2': -0.7581})]
You seemed to have missed the opening brackets before 84,4 and again before 84,23.
Try the following:
ties = [(84,40,{'variable1' : 0.11225, 'variable2': -0.2581}), (84,4,{'variable1' : -0.18855, 'variable2': -0.6458}), (84,23,{'variable1' : 0.05144, 'variable2': -0.7581})]
ties_len = list((len(i) for i in ties))
