I have a problem with split string on python. For example I have a string that need to add some quotes on it.
Example string:
word = "VITAMIN, HEALTH, SPORT"
And edit it to add some quotes on it into like this
word = "'VITAMIN', 'HEALTH', 'SPORT'"
CodePudding user response：
Use:
str(word.split(", "))[1:-1]
Or just do:
"'" "', '".join(word.split(', ')) "'"
Both solutions output:
'VITAMIN', 'HEALTH', 'SPORT'
Use str.split with str and slicing to remove the brackets.
CodePudding user response：
Just do:
word = ", ".join(f"'{s}'" for s in word.split(", "))
print(word)
Output
'VITAMIN', 'HEALTH', 'SPORT'
CodePudding user response：
You need to escape the quotes with \'.
So your code will be -
word = "\'VITAMIN\', \'HEALTH\', \'SPORT\'"

CodePudding user response：
One way that uses the fact that str.__repr__ puts a string within single quotes (unless the string contains single quotes):
word = ", ".join(map(repr, word.split(", ")))
