I have a list of integers as following
[1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7, -64, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 1, 1, 1]
How would I go about converting them into:
[(1, 10), (7, 12), (-64, 1), (9, 9), (1, 3)]
Or, in words, a tuple of (the integer, the amount of integers in a row)
I have tried the following
diff = [1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7, -64, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 1, 1, 1]
found = 0
new = []
for i,j in zip(diff, diff[1:]):
if i == j:
found += 1
else:
new.append((i, found))
found = 0
But it doesn't look great and doesn't work either, returns
[(1, 17), (7, 11), (-64, 0)]
