Examples of how to convert a matrix to a list in python:
Create a matrix with numpy
Let's consider the following matrix:
import numpy as npA = np.array((1,2,3,4))print(A)
gives
array([1, 2, 3, 4])
Convert a matrix to a list with list()
To convert a matrix to a list in python, a solution is to use the built-in function called list():
l = list(A)print(l)
returns
[1, 2, 3, 4]
Convert a matrix to a list with tolist()
Another solution is to use the numpy function tolist. Example with a 1d matrix:
l = m.tolist()print(l)
gives
[1, 2, 3, 4]
Another example with a 2d matrix:
A = np.array(((1,2,3,4),(5,6,7,8)))l = A.tolist()
returns
[[1, 2, 3, 4], [5, 6, 7, 8]]
