myList = [[1,2,3],[4,5,6],[7,8,9]] #Quick answer print([ele[0] for ele in myList]) #Prints [1, 4, 7] #Other variations print([[ele[0]] for ele in myList]) #Prints [[1], [4], [7]] print([[ele[0] for ele in myList]]) #Prints [[1, 4, 7]]
Here is what the above code is Doing:
1. [ele[0] for ele in myList]
2. [ele[0] for ele in [[1,2,3],[4,5,6],[7,8,9]]]
3. [1, 4, 7]
