Ah! taqeven is a list and I am cycling through the list to translate
each member. I incorrectly thought the problem was in the vector
format, not the variable.
The final working version is:
cmd.translate("[3.3,0,0]", "%s"%taqeven[y]) where y is the position in
the list i am cycling through.
thank you Andreas.
thank you Warren.
