Printing tuple with string formatting in Python

Question

So, i have this problem. I got tuple (1,2,3) which i should print with string formatting. eg.

tup = (1,2,3)
print \"this is a tuple %something\" % (tup)
         


        

Answer 1

t = (1, 2, 3)

# the comma (,) concatenates the strings and adds a space
print "this is a tuple", (t)

# format is the most flexible way to do string formatting
print "this is a tuple {0}".format(t)

# classic string formatting
# I use it only when working with older Python versions
print "this is a tuple %s" % repr(t)
print "this is a tuple %s" % str(t)
