Python | Count tuples occurrence in list of tuples
Many a time while developing web and desktop product in Python, we use nested lists and have several queries about how to find count of unique tuples. Let’s see how to get count of unique tuples in given list of tuples.
Below are some ways to achieve the above task.
Method #1: Using Iteration
# Python code to count unique # tuples in list of list import collections Output = collections.defaultdict( int ) # List initialization Input = [[( 'hi' , 'bye' )], [( 'Geeks' , 'forGeeks' )], [( 'a' , 'b' )], [( 'hi' , 'bye' )], [( 'a' , 'b' )]] # Using iteration for elem in Input : Output[elem[ 0 ]] + = 1 # Printing output print (Output) |
Output:
defaultdict(<class 'int'>, {('Geeks', 'forGeeks'): 1, ('hi', 'bye'): 2, ('a', 'b'): 2})
Method #2: Using chain
and Counter
# Python code to count unique # tuples in list of list # Importing from collections import Counter from itertools import chain # List initialization Input = [[( 'hi' , 'bye' )], [( 'Geeks' , 'forGeeks' )], [( 'a' , 'b' )], [( 'hi' , 'bye' )], [( 'a' , 'b' )]] # Using counter and chain Output = Counter(chain( * Input )) # Printing output print (Output) |
Output:
Counter({('hi', 'bye'): 2, ('a', 'b'): 2, ('Geeks', 'forGeeks'): 1})
