[Solved] Printing list shows single quote mark

by


Here’s one utility function that worked for me:

def printList(L):
    # print list of objects using string representation
    if (len(L) == 0):
        print "[]"
        return
    s = "["
    for i in range (len(L)-1):
        s += str(L[i]) + ", "
    s += str(L[i+1]) + "]"
    print s

This works ok for list of any object, for example, if we have a point class as below:

class Point:
    def __init__(self, x_crd, y_crd):
        self.x = x_crd
        self.y = y_crd
    def __str__(self):
        return "(" + str(self.x) + "," + str(self.y) + ")"

And have a list of Point objects:

L = []
for i in range(5):
    L.append(Point(i,i))
printList(L)

And the output comes as:

[(0,0), (1,1), (2,2), (3,3), (4,4)]

And, it served my purpose.
Thanks.
