I need to create a string that has a variable length of padding and im not
sure how to do it.
For instance
some_string = ("{something:<40}".format(something = somethingelse))
will give me a 40 space padded display of something
What if, after a little bit of string concatination (for want of a abetter
word) I want to do the following:
string_length = len(some_other_string)
some_string = ("{something:<string_length}".format(something = somethingelse))
When I do this I get a ValueError: Invalid format specifier.
IS there a clean and neat way of doing the above?
Regards,
David Crisp
