There is no direct answer. If you say
print x,
you will get
0 1 2 3 4
If you print a backspace before each number
print '\x08%x' % i,
you will get (the desired)
01234
unless you are in pythonwin which prints a graphic interpretation of
control characters.
The better approach is to collect the desired output in a string, then
print the string
result = ''
for x in xrange(0, 5):
result += str(x)
print x
Or create, then join, a list:
print ''.join([str(x) for x in xrange(0,5)])
