When it is required to remove duplicates from a tuple, the list comprehension is used.
A list can be used to store heterogeneous values (i.e data of any data type like integer, floating point, strings, and so on).
A list of tuple basically contains tuples enclosed in a list.
The list comprehension is a shorthand to iterate through the list and perform operations on it.
Below is a demonstration of the same −
Example
my_list_1 = [(11, 14), (0, 78), (33, 11), (0, 78)]
print("The list of tuple is : ")
print(my_list_1)
my_unique_list = list(set([i for i in my_list_1]))
print("The list of tuples after removing duplicates is :")
print(my_unique_list)Output
The list of tuple is : [(11, 14), (0, 78), (33, 11), (0, 78)] The list of tuples after removing duplicates is : [(33, 11), (11, 14), (0, 78)]
Explanation
- A list of tuple is defined and is displayed on the console.
- The list is iterated through, and is converted to set.
- This way, only unique elements are stored.
- This is again converted to a list.
- This is assigned to a value.
- It is displayed on the console.
