How to print a list of tuples with no brackets in Python

Question

I'm looking for a way to print elements from a tuple with no brackets.

Here is my tuple:

mytuple = [(1.0,),(25.34,),(2.4,),(7.4,)] 

I converted this to a list to make it easier to work with

mylist = list(mytuple) 

Then I did the following

for item in mylist:     print(item.strip()) 

But I get the following error

AttributeError: 'tuple' object has no attribute 'strip' 

Which is strange because I thought I converted to a list?

What I expect to see as the final result is something like:

1.0, 25.34, 2.4, 7.4 

or

1.0, ,23.43, ,2.4, ,7.4  

Answer 1

mytuple is already a list (a list of tuples), so calling list() on it does nothing.

(1.0,) is a tuple with one item. You can't call string functions on it (like you tried). They're for string types.

To print each item in your list of tuples, just do:

for item in mytuple:     print str(item[0]) + ',' 

Or:

print ', ,'.join([str(i[0]) for i in mytuple]) # 1.0, ,25.34, ,2.4, ,7.4 

Answer 2

You can do it like this as well:

mytuple = (1,2,3) print str(mytuple)[1:-1]
