printing array in tabular form
Dear experts, I need to print few arrays in a tabular form for example below array IL has 25 elements, is there an easy way to print this as 5x5 comma separated table? in python IL=[] for i in np.arange(1,bno+1): IL.append(i) print(IL) %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% in fortran I could do it as below %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% integer matrix(5,5) in=0 do, k=1,5 do, l=1,5 in=in+1 matrix(k,l)=in enddo enddo m=5 n=5 do, i=1,m write(*,"(5i5)") ( matrix(i,j), j=1,n ) enddo end *************************************************************** Sudheer Joseph Indian National Centre for Ocean Information Services Ministry of Earth Sciences, Govt. of India POST BOX NO: 21, IDA Jeedeemetla P.O.

assuming you want this table printed to a file, savetxt does just what you need. In brief for your case, np.savetxt("file.txt", IL.reshape(-1,5), fmt='%5d', delimiter=',') should print it in the requested form; you can refer to the save txt documentation for further options. HTH, Derek

IL is a list, not a numpy array. You can either convert the list to an array after you've filled it, using np.array(IL), or you can pre-allocate the array and fill it directly in the loop. Cheers, Henry
Thank you Gomersall, However writing a formatted out put looks to be bit tricky with python relative to other programing languages. For example, If I wanted to print below text in a file (for reading by another program), it looks to be not an easy job....Hope new developments will come and a userfriendly formatted out put method for pyton will evolve.

Before denigrating a programming language I would make sure to have a basic understanding of it. Every language is going to be tricky if you approach it with the mindset of Fortran programming. The output format you are trying to obtain is easy in forrtran because it is how the default text output formatting is designed. Of course obtaining it with a different programming language / numerical library takes some more effort. But is not tricky at all. Cheers, Daniele

Admittedly the formatting options in Python can be confusing to beginners, precisely since they are much more powerful than for many other languages. As already pointed out, formats of the type '(5i5)' are very common to Fortran programs and thus readily supported by the language. np.savetxt is just a convenience function to support a number of similarly common output types, and it can create csv, tab-separated, or plenty of other outputs from a numpy array just out of the box. But you added to the confusion as you did not make it clear that you were not just requiring a plain csv file as your Fortran example would create (and the first version did not even have the commas); since this is a rather non-standard form you will just have to write a short loop yourself, wether you are using Fortran or Python.
Infact the program which should read this file requires it in specified format which should look like IL = 1,2,3,4,5 1,2,3,4,5 1,2,3,4,5
The formats are all documented http://docs.python.org/2/library/string.html#format-specification-mini-langu... one important thing to know is that you can pretty much add (i.e. concatenate) them like strings: print(("%6s"+4*"%d,"+"%d\n") % (("IL = ",)+tuple(IL[:5]))) or, perhaps a bit clearer: fmt = "%6s"+4*"%d,"+"%d\n" print_t = ("IL = ",)+tuple(IL[:5]) print(fmt % print_t) The other important bit to keep in mind is that all arguments have to be passed as tuples. This should allow you to write a loop to print with a "header" or an empty header column for the subsequent lines as you see fit. Except for the string field which is explicitly formatted "%s" here, this is mostly equivalent to the example Henry just posted. HTH, Derek

That is a quite ingenuous way to use savetxt functionality to write that extra column! Only two comments: Don't call that function "format", as it would mask the 'format' builtin! In the present version it will only work with a file handle; to print it a to file you would need to pass it as fformat(open(fname, 'a'), … or check for that case inside the function. Cheers, Derek

Sudheer, This is not really numpy specific. There are many options for output formatting in python. For the specific question you have, you could do: print '{0}{1:8.3f}{2:8.3f}{3:8.3f}{4:8.3f}{5:8.3f}'.format(s,x1,x2,x3,x4,x5) format is a built-in python string method (see python docs). The one thing that I will agree with you on is that, as far as I know, there is no repeat count mechanism. There are tricky ways around that, e.g. fmt = '{0}' + ''.join(['{'+str(i)+':8.3f}' for i in range(1,6)]) print fmt.format(s,x1,x2,x3,x4,x5) though not as simple as the fortran output statement.

If performance is not an issue, you could do it by hand, as you can always do in any programming language:
savefile = open('data.txt', 'w') N = len(IL)
for start in xrange(N/5): if start+5 > N: end = N else: end = start+5 print >> savefile, IL[start : end]

Thank you for the response, Infact the program which should read this file requires it in specified format which should look like IL = 1,2,3,4,5 1,2,3,4,5 1,2,3,4,5 JL = 1,2,3,4,5 1,2,3,4,5 1,2,3,4,5 so, what I followed from the mail was that np.savetxt can save it in a file and there is no option like write a string and then leave space and then write the array in above fashion.

this is just plain wrong -- working with text in python is as easy, or easier, than most languages. Take a little time to learn a bit of pyton, and a bit of numpy, then come back if you can't figure it out.
