Python – Filter Tuples with Integers

When it is required to filter tuple with integers, a simple iteration and the ‘not’ operator and the ‘isinstance’ method is used.

Example

Below is a demonstration of the same −

my_tuple = [(14, 25, "Python"), (5, 6), (3, ), ("cool", )] print("The tuple is :") print(my_tuple) my_result = [] for sub in my_tuple: temp = True for element in sub: if not isinstance(element, int): temp = False break if temp : my_result.append(sub) print("The result is :") print(my_result)

Output

The tuple is : [(14, 25, 'Python'), (5, 6), (3,), ('cool',)] The result is : [(5, 6), (3,)]

Explanation

• A list of tuple is defined and is displayed on the console.

• An empty list is created.

• The list is iterated over, and the ‘isinstance’ method is used to see if the element belong to integer type.

• If yes, a Boolean value is assigned to ‘False’.

• The control breaks out of the loop.

• Depending on the value of Boolean value, the element is appended to the empty list.

• This is the output that is displayed on the console.
