Python 3: str.join() with seperator
16,875
Solution 1
If the separator is a variable you can just use variable.join(iterable)
:
data = ["some", "data", "lots", "of", "strings"]
separator = "."
print(separator.join(data))
some.data.lots.of.strings
Solution 2
output_string = ".".join(data)
if you have integers or non-strings in data, then
output_string = ".".join( str(x) for x in data )

I have some code which is essentially this:
data = ["some", "data", "lots", "of", "strings"] separator = "." output_string = "" for datum in data: output_string += datum + separator
How can I do this with
str.join()
or a similarbuilt-in
function? (or is it not possible?)
