for loop for list of string without using replace how to edit ?

[shahjapan]

I have this list,

['nl_NL.csv', 'es_ES.csv', 'pt_BR.csv', 'pt_PT.csv', 'cs_CZ.csv', 'zh_TW.csv', 'de_DE.csv', 'ro_RO.csv', 'zh_CN.csv', 'es_AR.csv', 'it_IT.csv', 'sv_SE.csv', 'ru_RU.csv', 'hu_HU.csv']


and I want this

['es_ES', 'pt_BR', 'pt_PT', 'cs_CZ', 'zh_TW', 'fr_FR', 'de_DE', 'ro_RO', 'zh_CN', 'es_AR', 'it_IT', 'sv_SE', 'ru_RU', 'hu_HU']

can anyone has optimized code for python for the same ?

This truncates the file names:[code=Python]
# csvlist is your initial list
>>> [item.split('.')[0] for item in csvlist]
['nl_NL', 'es_ES', 'pt_BR', 'pt_PT', 'cs_CZ', 'zh_TW', 'de_DE', 'ro_RO', 'zh_CN', 'es_AR', 'it_IT', 'sv_SE', 'ru_RU', 'hu_HU']
>>> [/code]

Or alternately:

[CODE=python]
>>> csvlist = ['nl_NL.csv', 'es_ES.csv', 'pt_BR.csv', 'pt_PT.csv', 'cs_CZ.csv', 'zh_TW.csv', 'de_DE.csv', 'ro_RO.csv', 'zh_CN.csv', 'es_AR.csv', 'it_IT.csv', 'sv_SE.csv', 'ru_RU.csv', 'hu_HU.csv']
>>> newlist = [item.rstrip('.c sv') for item in csvlist]
>>> newlist
['nl_NL', 'es_ES', 'pt_BR', 'pt_PT', 'cs_CZ', 'zh_TW', 'de_DE', 'ro_RO', 'zh_CN', 'es_AR', 'it_IT', 'sv_SE', 'ru_RU', 'hu_HU']
[/CODE]

Same thing basically...
