Hello,
I have a strange problem with the string format:
'%s %s %s %s %s' % ['01', '02', '03', '04', '05']
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: not enough arguments for format string
But as soon I use tuple it is working:
'%s %s %s %s %s' % ('01', '02', '03', '04', '05')
'01 02 03 04 05'
What is the problem and how can I still use list?
This sort of confusion between object as object and object as container
of objects was one of the reasons for the development of the new
str.format function. Within a call, [1,2,3] is one argument matching
one field. *[1,2,3], for instance, becomes three arguments matching
three fields.
