Python parse list and list of tuples into csv
<p>it's really frustrating: I just stored some data rows containing lists after a long long calculation in a csv file.
I am unable to get the csv data back into variable. 
Its more precise a row like</p>

<blockquote>
  <p>pete; [1,2,3,4,5]; [(1,2),(3,4),(5,6),...]</p>
</blockquote>

<p>Sure, Python csv parses to a string :/, 
thus, if I try the list()-casting, it's like:</p>

<pre><code>list("[(1,2),(3,4)]") = ['[','(','1',',',...]
</code></pre>

<p>Do you have any idea to cope with this?</p>

<p>thought I could use:</p>

<p>for name,list,lTuples in csvfile:</p>

<p>...</p>

<p>Thanks a lot!</p>
