[Tutor] printing without a new line

Sat Jun 12 18:40:32 EDT 2004

Hello all,

Thanks to all those who helped me with the last problem i had with this program, and that section now works beautifully, aside from the fact that a new line is printed at the end of each character conversion. Thus, "hello o my" yields:

1000 
101 
1100 
1100 
1111

1111 

1101 
11001

using the following code:

def convertxt():
    x = 0
    while x <= 26:
        if char in alphabet[x]:
            print binary[x] + ' '
        x += 1
def convertnum():
    whichconv = raw_input("""Convert to:
1: Binary
2: Hexadecimal
""")
    if whichconv in('1','Binary','binary','bin','b'):
        if char in number:
            print binary[int(original) - 1]
    elif whichconv in('2','Hexadecimal','hexadecimal','hexadec','hex','h'):
        if char in number:
            print hexadec[int(original) - 1]

import time

alphabet = [' ','a','b','c','d','e','f','g','h','i','j','k','l','m','n','o','p','q','r','s','t','u','v','w','x','y','z','A','B','C','D','E','F','G','H','I','J','K','L','M','N','O','P','Q','R','S','T','U','V','W','X','Y','Z']

Any ideas about how to prevent the program from beginning a new line with each character would be appreciated. Also, to address the issue of a triple-space appearing between binary 'words' (a single space appears between letters of a word) once the new line issue has been resolved (due to:

        if char in alphabet[x]:
            print binary[x] + ' '

and

alphabet = [' ', . . .]
binary = [' ', . . .] ##a space in text converts to a space in
                      ##binary, so that 'a bc' converts to
                      ##'01   10 11'
                                    ), i will change binary so that a space in text is converted to an underscore in binary, meaning that 'a bc' is converted to '01 _ 10 11'.
