So you want to convert a list into a tuple.

Here ya go, using your example of the table setup:

raw_table ="""
%s | %s | %s
--------------
%s | %s | %s
--------------
%s | %s | %s
"""
from random import choice
x_o = [choice(['x','o']) for i in range(9)]
x_o
['x', 'x', 'x', 'x', 'o', 'o', 'o', 'x', 'x']
filled_table = raw_table % tuple(x_o)
print filled_table

x | x | x
--------------
x | o | o
--------------
o | x | x

Hello,

This is my first post so if i make any kind of
mistakes take it easy on me :).

I don't know how to explain clearly what is the
problem but i'll try.
table = """
%s |%s |%s
-----------
%s |%s |%s
-----------
%s |%s |%s
"""

listTable is a dictionary.

listTable = {0 :'X', 1 :' ' , 2 :' ', 3 :'O', 4 :' ',
5 :' ', 6 :'O', 7 :' ', 8 :'X',}

I am trying to take the values from the dictionary
listTable.values() and print them in the table.

The problem is that listTable.values() returns a list
  " ['X', ' ', ' ', 'O', ' ', ' ', 'O', ' ', 'X']  "
and python won't assign the values of the dictionary
in the table. " table %  listTable.values() "

This error message appears:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<pyshell#81>", line 1, in <module>
   table % listTable.values()
TypeError: not enough arguments for format string


So instead of the list  " ['X', ' ', ' ', 'O', ' ', '
', 'O', ' ', 'X'] " which won't let me assign strings
in the table, i want to get ('X', ' ', ' ', 'O', ' ',
' ', 'O', ' ', 'X') from listTable.values()

I know i can make it work using:
table % (listTable[0],listTable[1],
listTable[2],listTable[3],listTable[4],
listTable[5],listTable[6],listTable[7],listTable[8])

but it's kinda long.


If somebody can tell me how to convert the []list into
() i'll make him a little shrine and worship him for 5
seconds :P

I'm trying to make a OXO game, so don't give me any
hints even if you spot mistakes (i hope i can make it
alone)
