python: using nested lists as arguments

Trying to use the elements of nested lists for the arguments of a function

list = [[ "stringA" , 11, 22], [ "stringB", 33 , 44]]

def func ( 'str' , a , b ):

I know how to call a single element: list[0][1] and func(*list) to use the lists as an argument.

How do I use the individual elements?

You seem to be trying to unzip the values of list. Try this.

list1 = [[ "stringA" , 11, 22], [ "stringB", 33 , 44]]

def func(string, a, b):
    print string, a, b

for i in list1:
    func(*i)

Output:

stringA 11 22
stringB 33 44

Do you mean?

func(*lst[0])

Often you might loop over the list

for item in lst:
    func(*item)
