Python - newline if variable is in print function, need fix [duplicate]

This question already has answers here:
How to print without a newline or space
(26 answers)
Closed 1 year ago.
I have one problem with print in Python, I am starting to learn Python, but when I want to print variables in print function, it looks like that after one variable it adds newline to the outcome:
print(game_name + " | " + rating)
I am making a game database with my own ratings on the games but if it prints the game and the rating there is like one empty line belpw the game_name and rating is written, how can I delete that empty newline? I am very new to this, so please don't be mean...

Welcome to Stack Overflow! The most likely culprit is that there is a newline at the end of the game_name variable. The easy fix for this is to strip it off like this:
print(game_name.strip() + " | " + rating)

Say we had two variables like this.
game_name = 'hello\n'
rating = 'there'
game_name has the newline. To get rid of that use strip().
print(game_name.strip() + " | " + rating)
output
hello | there

If you want to remove the line break after printing, you can define the optional end parameter to the print statement.
print('Hello World', end='') # No new line
If your variable has a new line added to it, and you want to remove it, use the .strip() method on the variable.
print('Hello World\n'.strip()) # No empty line
For your code, you could run it:
print(game_name + " | " + rating, end='')
Or
print(game_name + " | " + rating.strip())
If the error is that a new line is printed after game_name, you'll want to call the strip method on that instead.
print(game_name.strip() + " | " + rating)

rating or game_name most likely have a new line after the specified string.
You can fix it by doing this:
game_name = game_name.strip('\n')
rating = rating.strip('\n')
print(game_name + " | " + rating)

Change String to Float with (" ") in string [duplicate]

Ok, i have string like that in a file
"0.9986130595207214","16.923500061035156","16.477115631103516","245.2451171875","107.35090637207031","118.8438720703125","254.64633178710938","255.2373046875","264.1331481933594","28.91413116455078"
and i have multiple row.
how to change the data to float or number, i have problem because the item become ' "0.9986130595207214" '.
this code that i've write :
import numpy as np
data = np.loadtxt("data.csv",dtype=str,delimiter=',')
for y in data:
for x in y:
print(float(x))
and got error :
print(float(x)) ValueError: could not convert string to float:
'"0.9986130595207214"'
Thanks

From the error, you got:
x = '"0.9986130595207214"'
Thus, you first need to get rid of the brackets.
float(x.strip('"'))
Output:
0.9986130595207214

Python use function as string [duplicate]

I want to use a function as a String, i have this function:
def getCoins(user): ##Get the Coins from a user.##
try:
with open(pathToUser + user + ".txt") as f:
for line in f:
print(user + " has " + line +" coins!")
except:
print("Error!")
Now it just print the coins, but i want to use it in other codes like this:
client.send_msg(m.text.split(' ')[2] + "has" + coinapi.getCoins('User') + "coins")
How do it do that? So that i can use it like a string, the message in Twitchchat should be:
"USERXYZ has 100 coins"

Return a string
def getCoins(user): ##Get the Coins from a user.##
try:
with open(pathToUser + user + ".txt") as f:
return '\n'.join(user+" has "+line +" coins!" for line in f)
except:
return "Error!"
Also you should use format strings (assuming python 3.6)
def getCoins(user): ##Get the Coins from a user.##
try:
with open(f"{pathToUser}{user}.txt") as f:
return '\n'.join(f"{user} has {line} {coins}!" for line in f)
except:
return "Error!"

You should be able to just return the string you want in the output.
It looks like your code is iterating over f and printing the number of coins on each line, so you may need to return a list or generator of the coins amount, but the key answer to your question is just to return a string or something that can be turned into a string

Python string comparison not working for matching lines [duplicate]

String comparison doesn't seem to work for lines read from a file

I'm trying to write a small Python script to generate CentOS7 kickstart configs. I have a skeleton config file and based on some user inputs, the script will pop out a custom cfg file by inserting the customized blocks into the skeleton. However, the string comparison is not working for some reason.
#!/usr/bin/python
type = raw_input("Static OR DHCP: ")
gateway = raw_input("Gateway IP: ")
nameserver = raw_input("DNS Server: ")
hostname = raw_input("Hostname: ")
ipaddr = raw_input("IP Address: ")
skeleton = open('ks_skeleton.cfg', 'r')
config = open(hostname + '.cfg', 'w')
for line in skeleton:
if line == "$NETWORK":
print("Interting Network values...");
config.write("network --bootproto=" + type + " --device=ens192 --gateway=" + gateway + " --ip=" + ipaddr + " --nameserver=" + nameserver + " --netmask=255.255.255.0 --ipv6=auto --activate\n");
config.write("network --hostname=" + hostname + "\n");
else:
config.write(line);

The lines that you read from skeleton have new lines at the end, so the exact string comparison are probably not going to work. If you do line = line.strip() as the first line of your loop it will remove whitespace from before and after any text on the line, and might get you closer to what you want.

I want the results to be in the format Date, Question, Name and Score
file = open("results.csv", "a")
file.write('Date, Question, Name, Score\n' + date + ',' question + ',' + name + ',' + score + '\n')
file.close()
When I run this code i keep getting the error: TypeError: Can't convert 'int' object to str implicitly

You have to cast to any ints to string string before you can concat it to another and write to file.
str(score) # <-
file.write('Date, Question, Name, Score\n' + date + ',' question + ',' + name + ',' + str(score) + '\n')
Or use str.format:
with open("results.csv", "a") as f: # with closes your files automatically
f.write('Date, Question, Name, Score\n {}, {}, {}, {}'.format(date, question, name ,score))
You may also find the csv module useful

Then convert it explicitly to str:
file.write('Date, Question, Name, Score\n' + str(date) + ',' question + ',' + name + ',' + str(score) + '\n')
