Okay, so I made it to FOR loops in the Lutz book. A couple of days ago I was helped here with the .join method for creating strings from lists or tuples of strings. I got to wondering if I could just, for the sake of learning, do the same thing in a FOR loop, since that's today's chapter:
x=0; ham=''; b=['s','p','a','m'] #or, b=('s','p','a','m') for t in b: ham=ham+b[x] print(ham);x+=1 s sp spa spam Alright, it works, eventually. Can someone help me find a little more elegant way of doing this? I'm sure there are several. Incidentally, I put the print statement within the FOR loop so I could watch progress. _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
