['1899', 'Horsey', '1909', 'Ford', '1911', 'Overland',]

For example, I want to convert the above list into this form:

['1899', 'Horsey']['1909', 'Ford']['1911', 'Overland']

How can I do that? I'm very new to python.

You can use list comprehension in python 

Origlist = ['1899', 'Horsey', '1909', 'Ford', '1911', 'Overland',]
sublistsize = 2
sublists = [Origlist [x:x+sublistsize] for x in range(0,len(Origlist ),sublistsize)]

  • im running your code and get [['1899', 'Horsey'], ['1909', 'Ford'], ['1911', 'Overland'], ['1958', 'Ford'], ['1961', 'Amphicar'], ['1961', 'Corvair']], but i wanna remove the outside brackets to make like: ['1899', 'Horsey'] ['1909', 'Ford'] ['1958', 'Ford'] how can i achieve that? – Sam Wu May 31 '17 at 07:04
  • So you want these to save in some variable to use later or just print in the form you have mentioned ? – Aafaque Abdullah May 31 '17 at 13:56
