How to convert list of tuples to multiple lists?

Suppose I have a list of tuples and I want to convert to multiple lists. For example, the list of tuples is [(1,2),(3,4),(5,6),] Is there any built-in function in Python that convert it to: [1,3,5],[2,4,6] This can be a simple program. But I am just curious about the existence of such built-in function in Python.
The built-in function zip() will almost do what you want: >>> list(zip(*[(1, 2), (3, 4), (5, 6)])) [(1, 3, 5), (2, 4, 6)] This will give you a list of tuples. If you want to go further and arrive at a list of lists: >>> list(map(list, zip(*[(1, 2), (3, 4), (5, 6)]))) [[1, 3, 5], [2, 4, 6]]
