Python Program to replace elements of a list based on the comparison with a number
When it is required to replace elements of a list based on the comparison with a number, a simple iteration is used.
Example
Below is a demonstration of the same
my_list = [32, 37, 44, 38, 92, 61, 28, 92, 20]
print("The list is :")
print(my_list)
my_key = 32
print("The key is ")
print(my_key)
low, high = 2, 9
my_result = []
for ele in my_list:
if ele > my_key:
my_result.append(high)
else:
my_result.append(low)
print("The resultant list is :")
print(my_result)Output
The list is : [32, 37, 44, 38, 92, 61, 28, 92, 20] The key is 32 The resultant list is : [2, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 2, 9, 2]
Explanation
A list of integers is defined and is displayed on the console.
A value for key is defined and is displayed on the console.
The 'low' and 'high' variables are assigned values.
An empty list is defined.
The original list is iterated over, and every element is compared with the key.
If the element is greater, the 'high' variable is appended to the empty list.
Otherwise, the 'low' variable is appended to the empty list.
This is displayed as output on the console.
