groups = [["Roy","Sam","Amy"],["Tom","Jerry"]]

Trying to understand the output I am getting from this code

for group in groups: 
  for name in group: 
     print(group)

['Roy', 'Sam', 'Amy']
['Roy', 'Sam', 'Amy']
['Roy', 'Sam', 'Amy']
['Tom', 'Jerry']
['Tom', 'Jerry']

    Try print(name) instead of print(group) - you're not printing what you intended to print. Commented May 19, 2017 at 18:56

Seems like you meant to print name (the element in the inner-list), not group (the inner-list itself):

>>> groups = [["Roy","Sam","Amy"],["Tom","Jerry"]]
>>> for group in groups: 
...     for name in group:
...             print(name)
... 
Roy
Sam
Amy
Tom
Jerry
