title: python combining two lists of tuples into one big list of tuples?
body: <p>I've searched around and it seems like nobody has asked this question (or at least I can't find it).</p>
  
  <p>I have two lists of tuples and I want to join them to one list of tuples.</p>
  
  <pre><code>first = [('a', 1), ('b',2)]
  second = [('c',3), ('d',4)]
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I have tried appending, joining, zipping, but none of those are quite right. I want to get this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>wanted = [('a', 1), ('b',2), ('c',3), ('d',4)]
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Is there a simple way to do this?</p>
  
  <p>EDIT: I feel really stupid... of course its the one thing I forgot to try :( </p>
