I’m currently working on a script that’ll be working with Youtubes API. I’m still learning how to correctly parse using Python, but am a little lost on what method to take for something like this.

I have this string:

[{'term': u'Video Blogging', 'scheme': None, 'label': None}, {'term': u'blogging', 'scheme': None, 'label': None}, {'term': u'stuff', 'scheme': None, 'label': None}, {'term': u'Videos', 'scheme': None, 'label': None}]

I need to take that, and turn it in to this:

Video Blogging, blogging, stuff, Videos

What would be the best approach to solve this? Any help is appreciated, thanks!

    >>> l = [{'term': u'Video Blogging', 'scheme': None, 'label': None}, {'term': u'blogging', 'scheme': None, 'label': None}, {'term': u'stuff', 'scheme': None, 'label': None}, {'term': u'Videos', 'scheme': None, 'label': None}]
>>> [a.get('term') for a in l]
[u'Video Blogging', u'blogging', u'stuff', u'Videos']

    and if you want to get the items as a comma-delimited string, use:

    >>> ', '.join(a.get('term') for a in l)
u'Video Blogging, blogging, stuff, Videos'

    I used a.get('term') instead of a['term'] to avoid a KeyError for items without a term key.
