Hi Alex, You can do the following: Let givenlist = { {1, 23}, {2, 24}, {3, 25}, {4, 26} } To extract the second element in each sublist, you can use Map and Last like Map[ Last, givenlist ] which will give you a vector containing the second elements of the sublists. If you wish to regard each second element of the original list as a list, you can map List to the above result like Map[ List, Map[Last, givenlist] ] This is effectively a column matrix. I hope this helps. ==== [MESSAGE SEPARATOR] ====
