How to separate the same value from a list in python ?

Okay ...let's say I have a json array list . And I want to separate the data by the same used id into another sub list. Then how it can be done Here is an example: list = [{'user_id': 12, 'status': 'good'}, {'user_id': 32, 'from': 'bd'}, {'user_id': 12, 'sataus': 'based'}] and output should be something like this way: output_list = [[{'user_id': 12, 'status': 'good'},{'user_id': 12, 'sataus': 'based'}] [{'user_id': 32, 'from': 'bd'}]]

@all thank you very much for your help. I solved this issue. Here is the solution list = [{'user_id': 12, 'status': 'good'}, {'user_id': 32, 'from': 'bd'}, {'user_id': 12, 'sataus': 'based'}] used_list = [] for i in list: if i['user_id'] not in used_list: #fetch all user data by user_id in django after that used_list.append(i['user_id'])

MD SAAD , as a base we need a list of all occurring user_id. this can be achieved by using a for loop. user_id should be stored in a list. to keep only unique values (and to remove duplicates), we can use a set, that will be converted to list finally for the final step we have to iterate through the list of unique user_id. we can use a filter with a lambda function so that only dicts with the current user_id can pass. each result will finally appended to a list that now is a list of lists, whereas the inner lists are holding the dictionaries. the result will be: [[{'user_id': 12, 'status': 'good'}, {'user_id': 12, 'sataus': 'based'}], [{'user_id': 32, 'from': 'bd'}]]

Here is an example: from this list: list = [{'user_id': 12, 'status': 'good'}, {'user_id': 32, 'from': 'bd'}, {'user_id': 12, 'sataus': 'based'}] and should output this. output_list = [[{'user_id': 12, 'status': 'good'},{'user_id': 12, 'sataus': 'based'}] [{'user_id': 32, 'from': 'bd'}]]

Sorry, this one actually works. print(sorted(list, key=lambda x: x['user_id']))

Dump the json file into a dictionary and you can access it however you want

This may be too complicated a solution, but you could try using sql on your data after turning it into tables. Then you can manipulate your data however you want.

a = [] for x in list: for y in x.keys(): if y == ‘user id’: if x[y] == 12: a.append(x) print(a)

Use the same code but add a for loop at the beginning, youll need the number of user ids. So if your user ids are 50 total the code would be... a=[] for idss in 50: for x in list: for y in list.keys(): if y == ‘user_id’: if x[y] == idss: a.append(x)

If you dont have the user ids, get them and then create the loops. Sorry, gl
