why do we need the '*' at 'parts'. I know we need it, because
otherwise it
gives an error:
The * tells Python to unpack parts and treat the contents
as individual values. format is looking for 3 v
I see now, that example helps. Basically I use one asterisk to extract a
list or a tuple and double asterisks for a dictionary, but I have to provide
keys in case of a dictionary, like here:

>>> a = dict(motto='spam', pork='ham', food='eggs')

I'm working through the 'Learn Python' book by Mark Lutz, in this example:
somelist = list('SPAM')
parts = somelist[0], somelist[-1], somelist[1:3]
'first={0}, last={1}, middle={2}'.format(*parts)
"first=S, last=M, middle=['P', 'A']"

I had the same reaction, but I think it was mostly because of my long
background as a C programmer, since it's essentially the equivalent of
printf() f
IMHO % formatting is the easiest to use and understand.
I am sorry that it has been slated for removal.

For simple strings I use the "%s" % foo version, for more complex stuff I use
the .format() method. I find it easier to control spacing and alignments with
the .format() method, but that's just me.

If you're using Python 3, use the second one. If you're using Python 2,
you have no option but to use the first

Hi Kent,
Sorry I didn't make my question clearer. Bascially I
want to replace this line:
With:
So the regex grouping are that I want to keep
portNumber= and tcpORudp= and replace the values.
Which will be varibles in my code.
The question is more on the string formatting in the
replace. Ho

The format operator takes a tuple:
twork = m_sock.sub('\1 %s \2 %s' % (port_num, proto), twork)
So I removed the comma after the string, used a single percent

Hi Jerome,
Hello,
I'm trying to replace some strings in a line of text,
using some regex functions. My question is: If there's
more then one regex grouping I want to replace in one
line of a file, how can I use the String Formatting
operator (%s) in two places?
Here's the line it matches in the file:
