Python | Check for None Tuple
Sometimes, while working with Python records, we can have a problem in which we need to filter out all the tuples which contains just None values. This can have possible application in Data Science domain. Let’s discuss certain ways in which this task can be performed.
Method #1 : Using all()
+ generator expression
The combination of above functionalities can be used to perform this particular task. In this we feed the logic of finding None using generator expression and checking for each element is handled by all()
.
# Python3 code to demonstrate working of # Check for None Tuple # using all() + generator expression # initialize tuple test_tup = ( None , None , None , None , None ) # printing original tuple print ( "The original tuple : " + str (test_tup)) # Check for None Tuple # using all() + generator expression res = all (ele is None for ele in test_tup) # printing result print ( "Does tuple contain all None elements ? : " + str (res)) |
The original tuple : (None, None, None, None, None) Does tuple contain all None elements ? : True
Method #2 : Using len() + count()
The combination of above functions can be used to perform this task. In this, we just count the occurrences of None and equate to list length to check if all elements are None.
# Python3 code to demonstrate working of # Check for None Tuple # using len() + count() # initialize tuple test_tup = ( None , None , None , None , None ) # printing original tuple print ( "The original tuple : " + str (test_tup)) # Check for None Tuple # using len() + count() res = len (test_tup) = = test_tup.count( None ) # printing result print ( "Does tuple contain all None elements ? : " + str (res)) |
The original tuple : (None, None, None, None, None) Does tuple contain all None elements ? : True
