Examples :

  Input:  [`The`,` art`, `of`,` programming`]  Output:  [[`of`], [` The`, `art`], [` programming`]]  Input:  [`Welcome`,` to`, `pythonengineering`]  Output:  [[`to`], [` Welcome`], [`pythonengineering`]] 

Approach # 1: Python is naive

The naive approach for the above method uses a dictionary and a for loop to traverse the list. At each iteration, it is checked whether the item`s length is in the list or not. If not, it adds the length of the element and the element as a key: value pair, otherwise the element is simply added to the sublist of values. Finally, we list all the dict values ​​and return it.

# Python3 program for splitting a list of strings # in sublists based on line length    def divideList (lst): dct = {}    for element in lst: if len (element) not   in dct: dct [ len (element)] = [element] elif len (element) in dct: dct [ len (element)] + = [element]      res = [] for  key in sorted (dct): res.append (dct [key])   return res   # Code drivers lst = [ `The` , ` art` , ` of` , `programming` ] print (divideList (lst))

Exit:

 [[ `of`], [` The`, `art`], [` programming`]] 

Approach # 2: defaultdict () from collections module

This method takes defaultdict and stores it in the & # 39; group_by_len & # 39; variable. Using a for loop, we store the length of the string as a key and the string with the length of the key as the value. Finally, we list all the group_by_len values ​​and return it.

# Python3 program for splitting a list of strings # in sublists based on line length from collections import defaultdict   def divideList (lst): group_by_len = defaultdict ( list ) for ele in lst: group_by_len [ len (ele)]. append (ele)   res = [ ] for key in sorted (group_by_len): res.append (group_by_len [key])   return res   # Driver code lst = [ ` The` , `art` , ` of` , `programming` ] print (divideList (lst))

Exit:

 [[`of`], [` The`, `art`], [` programming`]] 

Approach # 3 : groupby () from itertools

The most efficient and simpler way to solve this problem is to use groupby () from the itertools module. This is a one line string where we use two variables & # 39; l & # 39; (for length) and & # 39; g & # 39; (group of lines) to go through & # 39; lst & # 39;, grouped by length and finally returning all groups packed into a list.

# Python3 program to split a list of lines # into sublists based on line length from itertools import groupby   def divideList (lst): res = dict ((l, list (g)) for l, g in groupby (lst, key = len ))     # Sort by key res = sorted (res.items (), key = lambda kv: (kv [ 0 ], kv [ 1 ]))   # Deleting key from the list of tuples return [ el [ 1 < / code> :] for el in ( tuple (x) for x in res)]   # Driver code lst = [ `The` , `art` , `of` , ` programming` ] print (divideList (lst))

Exit:

 [([`of`],), ([` The`, `art`], ), ([`programming`] ,)]
