Why doesn't my seperator parameter work ?-CodePudding

I am trying to print i value in one line. I used end but the code grade didn't accept it so I tried sep but it seems not working.

start=int(input("Give starting value: ")) stop=int(input("Give stopping value: "))

print("\nStarting for loop:")

for i in range(start,stop 1): print(i,sep = " ")

print("\n\nThank you for using the program.")

CodePudding user response：

sep is to separate values in the same call to print. You probably actually want to use the end parameter: print(i, end= " ")

CodePudding user response：

The sep keyword is for separating multiple values. the end keyword argument is meant for using to end the line with something other than the default line break.

to demonstrate

>>>
>>> for i in range(12):
...     print(i, end=' - ')
...
0 - 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 - 7 - 8 - 9 - 10 - 11 - 
>>>
>>> print(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11, sep=" - ")
1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 - 7 - 8 - 9 - 10 - 11
>>>

As you can see the sep only works when you have multiple values being printed in the same print statement...
