Oops, sorry about not replying to the list. I must have hit the wrong button.
I'm terming a redundant list just like I posted in the original message: [[1,2,3], [4,5,6],[1,2,3]] [0][0] and [0][2] are redundant, so I only want to keep one of them. Thanks again Luke. On 12/15/06, Luke Paireepinart <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

Like, is [[1,2,3],[3,2,1]] a list with 1 unique elements or two? If it is 1, then just sort all the lists before you check for redundancy. I don't think there are any algorithms that are specific to lists of lists, though there may be. -Luke P.S. please reply on-list :) > > On 12/15/06, *Luke Paireepinart* <[EMAIL PROTECTED] > <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>> wrote: > > Chris Hengge wrote: > > I've got a list of lists that looks like this > > > > [[1,2,3], [4,5,6],[1,2,3]] > > > > I'm looking for a good way to drop the redundant inner lists > > (thousands of inner lists) > > > > Someone either have a good way to tackle this? or willing to > point me > > in the right direction? > > > > Thanks! > > > Didn't we give multiple solutions to a similar problem with lists > with > redundant elements a few weeks ago? > Well, the solutions will be the same, regardless that the elements > inside are lists themselves. > > HTH, > -Luke > >
