I would like to print multiple tables,
following is the line which am using to print,
print ("%d\t*\t%d\t=\t%2d"%(multiplicand,i,result))
How to specify or pass the values such as two from a variable.
I tried something like this
max_len = len(maxresult)
print ("%d\t*\t%d\t=\t%" +max_len+"d"%(multiplicand,i,result))
but it didn't work.
You can use the * formatter to take the size from the inputs:
multiplicand, i = 50, 2
result= multiplicand * i
max_len = len(str(result))
format = "%d\t*\t%d\t=\t%*d"
print(format % (multiplicand, i, max_len, result))
The * length specifier in %*d takes the next value from the tuple as the length specifier. Note that that is a minimum length, not a maximum.
The str.format() formatting operation lets you do this with any parameter, not just the length; simply use another placeholder for the parameter you want to fill with a formatting value:
format = "{:d}\t*\t{:d}\t=\t{:{}d}"
print(format.format(multiplicand, i, max_len, result))
Did you tried to create the format String before?
multiplicand,i = 50,2
result= multiplicand *i
max_len = 2
format = "%d\t*\t%d\t=\t%" +str(max_len)+ "d"
print (format % (multiplicand,i,result))
