Hello Python folks, I have a function where I'd like to prefix a format string via a `prefix' string. The definition of the base method is as follows:
#START CODE def print_message(prefix, out_stream, fmt, *args, **kwargs): """ Print out [prefix]: [message] """ message = fmt if 0 < len(kwargs.keys()): message = message % kwargs if 0 < len(args): message = message % args out_stream.write(message + "\n") #END CODE My python 2.4.5 interpreter fails at `message % args' claiming the following: File "logging.py", line 10, in print_message message = message % (args) TypeError: not all arguments converted during string formatting Thus I was wondering what the proper means was for formatting strings. I'm new to this portion of Python, so I obviously didn't apply the right syntax. TIA! -Garrett -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
