Converting every two elements of a list to CSV in Python

Question

I have a list of lists like the following one:

[[5, 6], [10, 11], [14, 15]]

I want to output them as a csv file maybe using pandas to_csv in the following format:

Start End
5     6
10    11
14    15

How can I do this? I have an idea of flattening the list and then making every two elements as a comma-separated line of a CSV file. But I think it can be done more easily.

So you want comma-separated or tab-separated? Your question and output example don't match. — matszwecja, Feb 04 '22 at 13:55
@matszwecja Any one of them would work. That doesn't matter. — Md Abrar Jahin, Feb 04 '22 at 13:55

If you want to use pandas you can use:

data = pd.DataFrame(data_list, columns=["start","end"])
data.to_csv("myfile.csv")

Wow, that was freaking easy. I don't know why I thought it in a complicated way. – Md Abrar Jahin Feb 04 '22 at 14:00
