for loop in pyton exercise-CodePudding

I'm looking for help to solve the below problem: Having 2 variables beat and measures I need to create a loop that prints, on the same line, all the beats times the number of measures. Nevertheless, every time it starts a new measure, the first beat should be equal to the number of the current measure.

Example: beats_per_measure = 4, measures = 4 should give

1 2 3 4 2 2 3 4 3 2 3 4 4 2 3 4

and not

1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4

beat = beats_per_measure   1
measure = measures   1
for i in range(1,measure):
   for j in range(1, beat):
      print(j, end = " ")

This is the code I've tried to print beats x measure, but I'm not sure how to change that first beat to reflect the current measure.

This code gave:123123123, maybe you lost "space" somewhere.

for i in range(1,4):
   for j in range(1, 4):
     print(j, end = "")

CodePudding user response：

for i in range (1, measure 1):
  for j in range(1, beat 1):
    if j==1:
      print(i, end="")
    else:
      print(j, end="")

CodePudding user response：

Don't overthink a problem like this; adding an extra print provides the expected output, no if required:

measures = 4
beats = 4

for measure in range(1, measures 1):
    print(measure, end="")

    # Start beat from 2
    for beat in range(2, beats 1):
        print(beat, end="")

CodePudding user response：

You could try to use the str.join method:

beats_per_measure = 4
measures = 4

beats = beats_per_measure   1
print(" ".join(
    str(n) for k in range(1, measures   1) for n in [k]   list(range(2, beats))
))

Output:

1 2 3 4 2 2 3 4 3 2 3 4 4 2 3 4
