In Python, Itertools is the inbuilt module that allows us to handle the iterators in an efficient way. They make iterating through the iterables like lists and strings very easily. One such itertools function is filterfalse().
Note: For more information, refer to Python Itertools
tee() function
This iterator splits the container into a number of iterators mentioned in the argument.
Syntax:
tee(iterator, count)
Parameter: This method contains two arguments, the first argument is iterator and the second argument is a integer.
Return Value: This method returns the number of iterators mentioned in the argument.
Example 1:
# Python code to demonstrate the working of tee() # importing "itertools" for iterator operations import itertools # initializing list li = [2, 4, 6, 7, 8, 10, 20] # storing list in iterator iti = iter(li) # using tee() to make a list of iterators # makes list of 3 iterators having same values. it = itertools.tee(iti, 3) # printing the values of iterators print ("The iterators are : ") for i in range (0, 3): print (list(it[i])) |
Output:
The iterators are : [2, 4, 6, 7, 8, 10, 20] [2, 4, 6, 7, 8, 10, 20] [2, 4, 6, 7, 8, 10, 20]
Example 2:
# Python code to demonstrate the working of tee() # importing "itertools" for iterator operations import itertools # using tee() to make a list of iterators iterator1, iterator2 = itertools.tee([1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7], 2) # printing the values of iterators print (list(iterator1)) print (list(iterator1)) print (list(iterator2)) |
Output:
[1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7] [] [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7]
Example 3:
# Python code to demonstrate the working of tee() # importing "itertools" for iterator operations import itertools # using tee() to make a list of iterators for i in itertools.tee(['a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e', 'f', 'g'], 4): # printing the values of iterators print (list(i)) |
Output:
['a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e', 'f', 'g'] ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e', 'f', 'g'] ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e', 'f', 'g'] ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e', 'f', 'g']
