A previous question with the same title as mine has been posted, with (I think) the same question, but had other problems in the code. I was not able to determine if that case was identical to mine or not.
Anyway, I want to replace an element within a list in a list. Code:
myNestedList = [[0,0]]*4 # [[0, 0], [0, 开发者_开发知识库0], [0, 0], [0, 0]]
myNestedList[1][1] = 5
I now expect:
[[0, 0], [0, 5], [0, 0], [0, 0]]
But I get:
[[0, 5], [0, 5], [0, 5], [0, 5]]
Why?
This is replicated in the command line. Python 3.1.2 (r312:79147, Apr 15 2010, 15:35:48) [GCC 4.4.3] on linux2
You are having four references to same object by * 4, use instead list comprehension with range for counting:
my_nested_list = [[0,0] for count in range(4)]
my_nested_list[1][1] = 5
print(my_nested_list)
To explain little more concretely the problem:
yourNestedList = [[0,0]]*4
yourNestedList[1][1] = 5
print('Original wrong: %s' % yourNestedList)
my_nested_list = [[0,0] for count in range(4)]
my_nested_list[1][1] = 5
print('Corrected: %s' % my_nested_list)
# your nested list is actually like this
one_list = [0,0]
your_nested_list = [ one_list for count in range(4) ]
one_list[1] = 5
print('Another way same: %s' % your_nested_list)
