Complex data is hard to process The movie buff ’s data is complex. Let’s take another look at a subset of the data and your Python code that processes it.
The outer, enclosing list
The data
The Holy Grail, 1975, Terry Jones & Terry Gilliam, 91 mins Graham Chapman Michael Palin, John Cleese, Terry Gilliam, Eric Idle & Terry Jones
Another inner (inner), nested list
An inner, nested list
Your code
Process the outer, enclosing list.
Process the in nested list. ner,
for each_item in movies: if isinstance(each_item, list):
Yeah.. that’s almost working...it’s just a pity about that list of supporting actors...
for nested_item in each_item: print(nested_item) else: print(each_item)
Can you spot the problem with your Python code as it is currently written? What do you think needs to happen to your code to allow it to process the movie buff’s data correctly?
