How can I do it easier ? - Mike Ru - Jul-29-2017
I have a list. I need to change my list so that the first ten elems is becoming with a capital letter. I'm doing it this way:
numbers = ['one', 'two', 'three', 'four', 'five', 'six', 'seven', 'eight', 'nine', 'ten', 'eleven', 'twelve', 'thriteen', 'fourteen', 'fivteen'] first_ten = numbers[:10] capitalize_first_ten = for x in first_ten: capitalize_first_ten.append(x.capitalize()) tmp = list_[10:] print(list_) print(capitalize_first_ten + tmp)I'm sure there are a better way than mine. How would you make it ?

capitalized = [word.capitalize() for word in numbers]

I reduced the code.
numbers = ['one', 'two', 'three', 'four', 'five', 'six', 'seven', 'eight', 'nine', 'ten', 'eleven', 'twelve', 'thriteen', 'fourteen', 'fivteen'] tmp = [x.capitalize() for x numbers[:10]] numbers = tmp + numbers[:10] print(numbers)

numbers = ['one', 'two', 'three', 'four', 'five', 'six', 'seven', 'eight', 'nine', 'ten', 'eleven', 'twelve', 'thriteen', 'fourteen', 'fivteen'] >>> print([x.capitalize() for x in numbers[:10] * 2]) ['One', 'Two', 'Three', 'Four', 'Five', 'Six', 'Seven', 'Eight', 'Nine', 'Ten', 'One', 'Two', 'Three', 'Four', 'Five', 'Six', 'Seven', 'Eight', 'Nine', 'Ten']Or it's okay that way if want 1 capitalize with and 1 with lower case.

Example with islice and chain from itertools:
from itertools import islice from itertools import chain new_list = list(chain((x.capitalize() for x in islice(numbers, 0, 10)), islice(numbers, 10)))

capitalized = [word.capitalize() if numbers.index(word) < 10 else word for word in numbers]

capitalized = [word.capitalize() if i < 10 else word for i, word in enumerate(numbers)]
