How to convert a set to a list in python?

It is already a list

type(my_set)>>> <type 'list'>

Do you want something like

my_set = set([1,2,3,4])my_list = list(my_set)print my_list>> [1, 2, 3, 4]

EDIT : Output of your last comment

>>> my_list = [1,2,3,4]>>> my_set = set(my_list)>>> my_new_list = list(my_set)>>> print my_new_list[1, 2, 3, 4]

I'm wondering if you did something like this :

>>> set=set()>>> set([1,2])Traceback (most recent call last):  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>TypeError: 'set' object is not callable

python list set python-2.6

Instead of:

first_list = [1,2,3,4]my_set=set(first_list)my_list = list(my_set)

Why not shortcut the process:

my_list = list(set([1,2,3,4])

This will remove the dupes from you list and return a list back to you.

python list set python-2.6

[EDITED]It's seems you earlier have redefined "list", using it as a variable name, like this:

list = set([1,2,3,4]) # oops#...first_list = [1,2,3,4]my_set=set(first_list)my_list = list(my_set)

And you'l get

Traceback (most recent call last):  File "<console>", line 1, in <module>TypeError: 'set' object is not callable
