How To Change A List To A String In Python

Question 1

By using ''.bring together

                list1 = ['1', '2', 'iii'] str1 = ''.join(list1)

Or if the list is of integers, catechumen the elements before joining them.

                list1 = [one, ii, 3] str1 = ''.join(str(east) for e in list1)

Question 2

                >>> Fifty = [1,2,3]        >>> " ".join(str(x) for x in L) 'one two 3'

Question 3

                L = ['L','O','Fifty'] makeitastring = ''.join(map(str, L))

@SenthilKumaran If the resulting string requires split items such every bit when passing a list of files to a procedure, then "" has to be changed to " " (detect the space between the quotes). Otherwise, you end upwardly with a contiguous cord ("123" instead of "1 2 three"). This is OK if that was the intention, but needs to be mentioned in the response.

But gonna point out that the second class works fine on nigh any (single-depth) list.

I was looking for this here and establish it elsewhere: If you want to have a newline for every list element (might exist useful for long-string lists): impress ("\n".join(['I', 'would', 'look', 'multiple', 'lines']))

The question may be a duplicate merely the answer hither is better than there. :) Plus this pops up every bit the top result on google dissimilar the other. (which I've noticed a lot with dupes)

Hold with @Bogdan. This answer creates a string in which the list elements are joined together with no whitespace or comma in between. You can utilise ', '.join(list1) to join the elements of the list with comma and whitespace or ' '.bring together(to) to join with only white infinite

                >>> Fifty = [1,2,3]        >>> " ".join(str(x) for x in L) 'one two 3'

I'd recommend to use: >>> " ".bring together([str(ten) for 10 in L])

it throw TypeError exception,like this: In [15]: L=['i','2','3'] In [16]: print ''.bring together(map(str,Fifty)) --------------------------------------------------------------------------- TypeError Traceback (most recent call last) <ipython-input-16-f3b8e6cb2622> in <module>() ----> 1 print ''.join(map(str,50)) TypeError: 'str' object is not callable

Since it wasn't specific in the question... If you want to preserve unmarried string quotes on your listing items (for sending a query to SQL, for instance), you can practise something like this. ten = [one,2,iii] y = "'" + "','".bring together(map(str, x)) + "'"

Anyone who is trying to re-use the string afterward converting the list to string can you this method: list1 = [1, 2, 3] str1 = ''.join('hello globe' + str(e) + 'hullo globe' for eastward in list1) Output =========== hello world 1 hi world hello world 2 hello world hello world 3 hello world
