55. Problem to pack consecutive duplicates of given list.

In this Python list program, we will take a user input as a list and pack consecutive duplicates of given list elements into sublists with the help of the below-given steps.

Pack consecutive duplicates in the list:

Steps to solve the program
  1. Take a list of consecutive duplicate elements as input.
  2. Import groupby from itertools.
  3. Create a new list using list comprehension to pack consecutive duplicates elements into sublists using groupby.
  4. Print the list to see the output.
				
					#Input list
list1 = [0, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 4, 5, 6, 6, 7, 8, 8, 9]
from itertools import groupby

#Creating new list
list2 = [list(group) for key, group in groupby(list1)]

#Printing output
print(list2)
				
			

Output :

				
					[[0, 0], [1], [2], [3], [4, 4], [5], [6, 6], [7], [8, 8], [9]]

Pack consecutive duplicates of given list

53. Problem to count empty dictionaries from the given list.

In this Python list program, we will take a user input as a list and count empty dictionaries from the given list with the help of the below-given steps.

Count empty dictionaries in a list:

Steps to solve the program
  1. Take user input as list containing dictionaries, lists, and tuples.
  2. Create an empty list.
  3. Use for loop to iterate over the given list.

  5. Count the number of empty dictionaries.
  6. Print the result to see the output.
				
					#Input list
list1 = [{}, {"a": "sqatools"}, [], {"a": 123}, {}, {}, ()]

#Empty list
list2 = []
for element in list1:
#Checking for dictionary
    if isinstance(element, dict):
        if len(element) == 0:
            list2.append(element)

#Printing output

52. Problem to get items that start with a specific character in a list

In this Python list program, we will take a user input as a list and find the items that start with a specific character from a given list with the help of the below-given steps.

List items that start with specific character:

Steps to solve the program
  1. Take a list as input containing strings starting with required characters.
  2. Create empty lists according to the requirements to store the items that start with a specific character.
  3. Add only those strings starting with the given characters in those empty strings.
  4. Use for loop and nested if-else statements for this purpose.
  5. Print the lists to see the result.
				
					#Input list
list1 = ["abbcd", "ppq", "abd", "agr", "bhr", "sqqa", "tools", "bgr"]

#Creating empty list
with_a = []
with_b = []
with_c = [] 

for word in list1:
    if word[0] == "a":
        with_a.append(word)
    elif word[0] == "b":
        with_b.append(word)
    elif word[0] == "c":
        with_c.append(word)

#Printing output
print("Starting with a: ", with_a)
print("Starting with b: ", with_b)
print("Starting with c: ", with_c)
				
			

Output :

				
					Starting with a:  ['abbcd', 'abd', 'agr']
Starting with b:  ['bhr', 'bgr']
Starting with c:  []

Move all zero digits to the end

Items that start with a specific character

50. Problem to move all zero digits to the end.

In this program, we will take a user input as a list and move all zero digits to the end of a given list of numbers with the help of the below-given steps.

Move all zero digits to the end:

Steps to solve the program
  1. Take a list as input.
  2. Create a variable var and assign its value equal to 0.
  3. Use for loop with the range function to iterate over elements in the list.
  4. If the iterated element is greater than 0 then assign its value to the temp variable.
  5. Assign the value of that index number equal to list1[var]
  6. Now change the value of list1[var] to temp variable.
  7. Add 1 to the var variable.
  8. Print the output to see the result i.e. move all zero digits to the end.
				
					#Input list
list1 = [3, 4, 0, 0, 0, 0, 6, 0, 4, 0, 22, 0, 0, 3, 21, 0]
var = 0

for i in range(0,len(list1)) :
    if (list1[i] > 0) :
        temp = list1[i]
        list1[i] = list1[var]
        list1[var]= temp
        var += 1

#Printing output
print(list1)
				
			

Output :

				
					[3, 4, 6, 4, 22, 3, 21, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0]
