Python | Swap tuple elements in list of tuples
While doing competitive programming, one can come across a question in which one requires to work with 2D plane and work with coordinates. One such subproblem can be swapping x, y coordinate elements. Let’s discuss certain ways in which this problem can be solved using tuple element swapping.
Method #1 : Using list comprehension
This is just a brute method to perform the longer method of loop for swapping the elements. In this a new list of tuple is created rather than an inplace swap.
# Python3 code to demonstrate working of # Swap tuple elements in list of tuples # Using list comprehension # initializing list test_list = [(3, 4), (6, 5), (7, 8)] # printing original list print("The original list is : " + str(test_list)) # Swap tuple elements in list of tuples # Using list comprehension res = [(sub[1], sub[0]) for sub in test_list] # printing result print("The swapped tuple list is : " + str(res)) |

Output :
The original list is : [(3, 4), (6, 5), (7, 8)] The swapped tuple list is : [(4, 3), (5, 6), (8, 7)]
Method #2 : Using map() + lambda
Yet another way to perform this task is using map and lambda. This is a bit slower in execution but a more compact way to perform this task.
# Python3 code to demonstrate working of # Swap tuple elements in list of tuples # Using map() + lambda # initializing list test_list = [(3, 4), (6, 5), (7, 8)] # printing original list print("The original list is : " + str(test_list)) # Swap tuple elements in list of tuples # Using map() + lambda res = list(map(lambda sub: (sub[1], sub[0]), test_list)) # printing result print("The swapped tuple list is : " + str(res)) |

filter_none
Output :
The original list is : [(3, 4), (6, 5), (7, 8)] The swapped tuple list is : [(4, 3), (5, 6), (8, 7)]
