How combine and output a list properly

Question

the following code returns:

abc: [(2022, 5, 14, 13, 35, 57), -7]

I'm trying to get rid of the extra parenthesis after the 57

like this: abc = (2022, 05, 14, 13, 7, 42, -7)

here is my code:

abc = time.localtime()
    
        list(abc)
        
        
        abc = abc[:6]
        abc = [abc] + [-7]

Answer 1

In python3 I would do:

abc=(*abc, -7)

instead of the posted line of code

abc = [abc] + [-7]

Some short explanations about the abc=(*abc, -7)

*abc does "unpack" the tuple abc into a list of single values. Then whe append a value of -7 and create a new tuple containing all the values.

The original code [abc] stores the tuple contained in abc in a list with only one element (the tuple from abc). After that the value -7 is appended to the new list, resulting in a list with two elements. The first one beeing the tuple abc and the second element beeing the value -7.
