how to name each tuple in a for loop

June 25, 2022

I have a tuple of tuples in the form:

test=((-1.0, 1.0, 0.0),
    (-1.0, -1.0, 0.0),
    (1.0, -1.0, 0.0),
    (1.0, 1.0, 0.0))

I would like to name each tuple in a loop as:

Desired Output:

coord1 = (-1.0, 1.0, 0.0)
coord2 = (-1.0, -1.0, 0.0)
coord3 = (1.0, -1.0, 0.0)
coord4 = (1.0, 1.0, 0.0)

Not sure how to implement this for a variable amount of assignments. i.e., my tuple of tuples has a length of 604.

>Solution :

You can try this for more coord as you say you have 604 coords:

test=((-1.0, 1.0, 0.0),(-1.0, 1.0, 0.0),
    (-1.0, -1.0, 0.0),(-1.0, -1.0, 0.0),
    (1.0, -1.0, 0.0),(1.0, -1.0, 0.0),
    (1.0, 1.0, 0.0),(1.0, 1.0, 0.0))

coors = map(lambda x: f'Coords {x}', range(len(test)))

res = zip(coors, test)

print(*(map(lambda x: f'{x[0]} = {x[1]}', res)), sep = '\n')

Output:

Coords 0 = (-1.0, 1.0, 0.0)
Coords 1 = (-1.0, 1.0, 0.0)
Coords 2 = (-1.0, -1.0, 0.0)
Coords 3 = (-1.0, -1.0, 0.0)
Coords 4 = (1.0, -1.0, 0.0)
Coords 5 = (1.0, -1.0, 0.0)
Coords 6 = (1.0, 1.0, 0.0)
Coords 7 = (1.0, 1.0, 0.0)
