Hello all, Thank you for your time and tips. The reason why I decided to create a loop is because the output is cleaner and did not require any formatting. However, based on what I have learned from all of your responses, that is not going to work with what I am trying to do. Here is the updated code: import csvdomains = open('top500domains.csv')domainsReader = csv.reader(domains)domainLists = list(domainsReader)print('\n'.join(["https://www ." + str(lst) for lst in domainLists]), sep='\n')
------------------------- It is almost how I want it - however, I cannot seem to figure out how to format the output to drop the [' '] from the output. For example, here is how the output comes up:https://www .['facebook.com/'] I would like to get it in:https://www.facebook.com Please suggest what is the best, as well as the easiest way to format data out of lists. (I image myself creating a lot of lists and would be helpful to know how to generally handle formatting with lists) Thanks in advance! :)) Thank you.

Each time you go through the loop, you change the value of "something" to the new value. If you do this: x = 23 x = 42 print(x) What do you expect to print? Hopefully 42. If you want multiple values, you need something like a list: x = [] x.append(23) x.append(42) print(x) Of course, in *this* case, there is an easier way to create a list with two values: x = [23, 42] but in the general case where you don't know how many values you will have, you need to add them using append inside a loop. -- Steve _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
