Python end=""

Question

I was making a simple password generator. The user puts in the how long they want there password to be and it generates a password for them. I'm just wondering, the code below is there any chance instead of using end="" to print the password all on the same line that i could use the * operator. Like print("?" * 4) print "?" 4 times all on the same line. I tried multiple different ways but I couldn't get it really how I want it too. is it even possible to do it that way?

Justice thanks!

Your Mom ,

we can simplify the generation of the password by using the random method *choices* instead of *choice*. we can use it like:

password_random = random.choices(password, k=password_length)

it generates the requested number of characters (k=...) in one go, so we can omit the for loop. the result of this line is a list of characters, that can be joined to a string for output.
then just print the password without any additional arguments.

Lothar It does work, just not for mohile users. See my message. Your Mom is a PC user so he won't have access to the app links so I made it myself.

Answer 5

Can you elaborate on the end goal that you're trying to do? Want to make sure I understand what you're asking. You're wanting it to print the password 4 times or give them 4 options or something? Or just not wanting to use end=""?

Dunno if this helps, give me more info and I'll let ya know if we can figure it out:

Answer 6

Im basically just asking instead of printing everything on the same line using end=“” can i use the * operator which can also print things on the same line if that makes sense.
