You are out of luck, the softspace mechanism, roughly softspace = False for i in range(5): if softspace: print(end=" ") print(i, end="") softspace = True print() with `softspace` saved as a file attribute, is gone in Python3. But I don't think that someone who doesn't know it existed will miss the feature. Maybe you can allow for /some/ magic and introduce your students to print(*range(5)) early-on. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
