To print a list with a specified format one can write (for example)
for j in [0,1,2]:
print "%6d"%j,
print
The code
print "%6d"%[0,1,2]
currently produces a syntax error, but it would be convenient if it
had the same meaning as the loop above.
One can write a function to print a list, for example
def print_list(x,fm t_x="%6d"):
""" print a list on one line """
for y in x: print fmt_x % y,
print_list([0,1,2])
but it gets messy to print several lists on the same line.
In Fortran 90/95 one can write
print "(100i6)",(/0,1,2/)
where the format (100i6) means that UP TO 100 integers are printed
using 6 columns. An alternative suggestion I have for Python is to
allow
print "100%6d"%[0,1,2]
with the same meaning.
I realize that what I am asking for is just a convenience, but it is
one that I could use in almost every program I write. 5 1880 be*******@aol.c om escribio: To print a list with a specified format one can write (for example)

How about using:
def fmtlst(fmt,lst) :
return fmt*len(lst) % tuple(lst)
print fmtlst("%3d",ra nge(5)), fmtlst("%5.2f", [1.2, 3, 4.567])
This prints:
0 1 2 3 4 1.20 3.00 4.57
Maybe it gets your job done (though it's not the most efficient thing
one can do...) but it gets messy to print several lists on the same line.

It looks a bit weird (unpythonic) to me, and we can use workarounds :) with the same meaning.

How about :
print ''.join(["%6d" % j for j in [0,1,2]])
or
print reduce(lambda x,y: x+"%6d" % y, [0,1,2], '')
or
t=[sys.stdout.writ e("%6d" % j for j in [0,1,2]]
(note: the t assignment is so the list comprehension
results don't print)
all work and are pythonic in nature. I didn't
test, but I'll be the last one is the most
efficient.

A TypeError. What if I wanted the current behaviour, e. g "%s" % [1, 2, 3]
'[1, 2, 3]'
instead of
"%s" % [1, 2, 3]
'1 2 3' #faked One can write a function to print a list, for example

How about different operators for the two formatting operations:
class Format(str):
.... def __mul__(self, other):
.... return " ".join(map(self .__mod__, other))
.... Format("%6d") % 1
' 1' Format("%6d") * [1, 2, 3]

No, it doesn't. (it produces a TypeError)
but it would be convenient if it had the same meaning as the loop above.
No, it wouldn't.

The real problem is that "100%6d" already has a meaning in string
formatting, though not what you like. On the most part, Python string
formatting conventions follow C string formatting conventions. Python
has added "%(key)s" formatting, and there may be $-formatting in the
future (I stopped following that thread months ago).
Again, the syntax you offer "100%6d" is already valid, if meaning
something else.

I am having a problem with printing selected pages. Actually, the problem
isn't with printing selected pages as it is more to do with having blank
pages print for those pages that have not been selected.
For example, if I were to have 5 pages with every second page printing, I
would get the following results:
Page 1 = Print OK
Page 2 = Blank
Page 3 = Print OK
Page 4 = Blank
