I read list with 2 columns firstname and surname from csv file

    csv_reader_object = csv.reader(path, delimiter=';')
         for row in csv_reader_object:

I want to put the name into a contructor but alway get {'Garfield'} instead of Garfield as string

This one is fine:

print(f'Name: {", ".join(row)}')

These are not:

print(str({row[1]}))
print({row[1]})

How to get simple formatted string out of that list?

CodePudding user response：

You are extracting row[1] and then put it into set (thus { and } you see) simply do not that, i.e. replace

print(str({row[1]}))
print({row[1]})

using

print(str(row[1]))
print(row[1])

CodePudding user response：

This is because when you place curly brackets around a string you are actually making a set of single element and when set is printed it is printed with those curly brackets as in

>>> str({"hello"})
"{'hello'}"
>>> 

you can fix this by removing those curly brackets as in

print(str(row[1]))
print(row[1])
