Why does \n not work?

Question

EDIT: This is now solved, thank you very much

It's probably weird to be so excited, but I just defined my first function!! This seemed so difficult for me.

Can somebody tell though why the line continuation \n doesn't work and what I could do instead of print(" ") on every line I want to jump?

Thank you

Answer 1

Hello,

Congratulations on making your first function. I do not know what your code looks like, and therefore I can't tell exactly why it is not working.

But, the mistake I had, is that I didn't put "\n" inside speech marks (" "). Which you might have.

Can you post your code in here, so it can be analysed and a solution be suggested for you?

😎 Show us your code

Answer 3

Thank you SoloProg and Lamron
I will definitely try out both 😁👍

Answer 4

Huh, something went wrong there. Here's the code now.
Sorry Lamron and SoloProg

Answer 5

Use print (f"[ h:{h} w:{w} d:{d} ]")
instead of print("h:" + str(h)+" w:"+str(w)+" d:"+"33.0")

Answer 6

Try this for each one of them:

print("\n[]\n")
calc_expedit(1,1)
print("\n[][]\n")
calc_expedit(2,1)
calc_expedit(2,1)

print("\n[][]\n")
calc_expedit(1,2)
calc_expedit(1,2)

\n before [] will make it so there is a line break between the previous [] and this []. \n after [] will make it, so there's a line break after this line. Just put \n at the end/start of the strings, where boxes are

Answer 7

So, you want each of [ ] on a new line?

UPD: oh, I see what you want, give me a minute

Answer 8

With '\n's

Answer 9

Lamron , no, I would like it to look how it looks now but would like to not have to use a print(" ") every single time

Answer 10

First:
print("\n") Is printing new line
Second:
Why you want print "[]" ?

Answer 11

Thanks Lochard that's a lot shorter 😁

Answer 12

Václav Dostál The "[]" are the boxes I need to fit into the Kallax Cubbie. I need to see the arrangement

Answer 13

print("Hello\nWorld!")

Answer 14

Sarah I made one that requires different input.
