New submission from Nima <nim...@gmail.com>:
I want to make an list consist on subsequences of another list, for example: -------------------------------------------------------------- input: array = [4, 1, 8, 2] output that i expect: [[4], [4,1], [4, 1, 8], [4, 1, 8, 2]] -------------------------------------------------------------- but output is: [[4, 1, 8, 2], [4, 1, 8, 2], [4, 1, 8, 2], [4, 1, 8, 2]] -------------------------------------------------------------- my code is: num = [4, 1, 8, 2] temp = [] sub = [] for item in num: temp.append(item) sub.append(temp) -------------------------------------------------------------- i think it's a bug because, append() must add an item to the end of the list, but here every time it add the temp to the sub it changes the previous item as well, so if it's not a bug please help me to write the correct code. ---------- components: Windows messages: 402458 nosy: nima_fl, paul.moore, steve.dower, tim.golden, zach.ware priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Bug in append() method in order to appending a temporary list to a empty list using for loop type: behavior _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue45265> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
