Hi
Python 3.4 Linux (ubuntu)

This code does what I want.
curs is the result of a mysql query


data = [[" " for x in range(9)] for y in range(count)]
for (ddate, mood, walk, lag, sleep) in curs:
        data[row][0]=ddate
        data[row][1]=mood
        data[row][2]=walk
        data[row][3]=lag
        data[row][4]=sleep
        row +=1

if you want 'lists in list' (like your solution):

data = []
for ddate, mood, walk, lag, sleep in curs:
    data += [ [ddate, mood, walk, lag, sleep] ]

or 'tuples in list':

data = []
for ddate, mood, walk, lag, sleep in curs:
  data += [ (ddate, mood, walk, lag, sleep) ]

but for 'tuples in list'... simple:

data = []
for record in curs:
  data += [record]

Thanks,
I hadn't considered having a second list of lists for my calculations,
Your solution is the sort of thing I was looking for.
