How to convert list into string with quotes in python

Question

i have a list and want it as a string with quotes mylist = [1,2,3]

require O/P as myString = "'1','2','3'"

i tried mystring = '\',\''.join(mylist)

it gave me result as

mystring = "1','2','3"

first and last quotes (') are missing

Answer 1

This seems to be the only solution so far that isn't a hack...

>>> mylist = [1,2,3]
>>> ','.join("'{0}'".format(x) for x in mylist)
"'1','2','3'"

This can also be written more compactly as:

>>> ','.join(map("'{0}'".format, mylist))
"'1','2','3'"

Or, using an f-string:

>>> mylist = [1,2,3]
>>> ','.join(f"'{x}'" for x in mylist)
"'1','2','3'"

Answer 2

>>> mylist = [1,2,3]
>>> str([str(x) for x in mylist]).strip("[]")
"'1','2','3'"
