I tend to use ‘u"foo {bar} baz".format(**vars())’, since ‘vars’ can also
take the namespace of an object. I only need to remember one “give me
the namespace” function for formatting.

print "{} was captured by {}".format(solo, jabba)
Is this Python2.7 specific?
Python 2.6.x :
print "{} was captured by {}".format('t1', 't2')
ValueError: zero length field name in format
Apparently it is 2.7 and greater -- my apologies for not specifying that.

Hi,
I'd like to simplify the following string formatting:
solo = 'Han Solo'
jabba = 'Jabba the Hutt'
print "{solo} was captured by {jabba}".format(solo=solo, jabba=jabba)
# Han Solo was captured by Jabba the Hutt
What I don't like here is this: "solo=solo, jabba=jabba", i.e. the
same thing is re
12 matches
