Hi all,
How do I replace the same value multiple times without repeating the
same variable name/value repeatedly?
for ex.
some = 'thing'
print '%s %s %s %s' % (some,some,some,some)
in this case, my question is how do i replace "% (some,some,some)" with
something more concis

Does this help?
Another approach is to use dictionaries for string
replacement.
>>> subst = {'some': 'thing'}
>>> print "%(some)s%(some)s%(some)s" % subst
thingthingthing

If you look closely at the end of the string there is an extra space.
>>> " ".join((st, )*3)
'String String String'
^
No extra space.
Ah...Okay!

Some other solutions might be
>>> animal = 'cat'
>>> " ".join((animal, ) * 4)
'cat cat cat cat'
>>> animal = 'cat'
>>> print " ".join((animal, ) * 4)
cat cat cat cat
>>>#If you need the string injected into another string
>>> print "My %s's name is ginger." % (" ".join((animal,) * 4))
My cat cat c

You can use named parameters, whi
