Print multiline strings side-by-side

Question

I want to print the items from a list on the same line. The code I have tried:

dice_art = [\"\"\"
 -------
|       |
|   N   |
|       |
 ------- \"\"\",\"\"         


        

Answer 1

Since the elements of dice_art are multiline strings, this is going to be harder than that.

First, remove newlines from the beginning of each string and make sure all lines in ASCII art have the same length.

Then try the following

player = [0, 1, 2]
lines = [dice_art[i].splitlines() for i in player]
for l in zip(*lines):
    print(*l, sep='')

If you apply the described changes to your ASCII art, the code will print

 -------  -------  ------- 
|       ||       ||       |
|   N   ||   1   ||   2   |
|       ||       ||       |
