Pythonic way to print list items

Question

I would like to know if there is a better way to print all objects in a Python list than this :

myList = [Person(\"Foo\"), Person(\"Bar\")]
print(\"\\n\".joi         


        

Answer 1

Assuming you are using Python 3.x:

print(*myList, sep='\n')

You can get the same behavior on Python 2.x using from __future__ import print_function, as noted by mgilson in comments.

With the print statement on Python 2.x you will need iteration of some kind, regarding your question about print(p) for p in myList not working, you can just use the following which does the same thing and is still one line:

for p in myList: print p

For a solution that uses '\n'.join(), I prefer list comprehensions and generators over map() so I would probably use the following:

print '\n'.join(str(p) for p in myList)
