I'm using the following function style I found on the net to create
menus for a command line python script:
def mainmenu():
# the main menu
todolist()
mainmenuoptions = ['Clients','Jobs','Billing','Quotes','To Do
Items','Employee','Exit']
mainmenucalls = [clientsmenu, jobsmenu, billingmenu, quotesmenu,
todomenu, empmenu, quit]
for i,option in enumerate(mainmenuoptions):
print('%s. %s' % (i, option))
mainchoice = int(input('\nYour Choice? '))
clearscreen(osname)
mainmenucalls[mainchoice]()
return
It works well, but the first item is the list is item 0. This is
normal in most computing situations, but because this index is part of
the output It would be nice if the first item in the list is item 1.
php provided a way to change this, but I can find no documentation
that says python can do this as well.
I don't know of any way to change this, but I can think may ways to
bypass the "problem" or to make good use of it. For example:
mainmenuoptions = ["Main Menu:\n",
'Clients','Jobs','Billing','Quotes','To Do Items','Employee','Exit']
mainmenucalls = [do_nothing, clientsmenu, jobsmenu, billingmenu,
quotesmenu, todomenu, empmenu, quit]
def do_nothing()
pass
What about this?
