How to convert a list of strings to a tuple of floats?
Hello group,
this is the conversion I'm looking for:
['1.1', '2.2', '3.3'] -> (1.1, 2.2, 3.3)
Currently I'm "disassembling" the list by hand, like this:
fields = line.split('; ')
for x in range(len(fields)):
fields[x] = float(fields[x])
ftuple = tuple(fields)
Of course it works, but it looks inelegant. Is there a more Pythonisch
way of doing this? In C I'd just use sscanf.

Prepackaged function args
Hello group, suppose I've got a function f() that takes N parameters, and a list (or tuple) arg[] with N elements that I'd like to pass as parameters. The straightforward function call looks like this: result = f(arg[0], arg[1], ..., arg[N-1]) Is there a less verbose way of accomlishing this? Thanks, robert -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
