I have this code that's supposed to select 4 random words from a list and put them together to create a password
passphr = []
for r in range(4):
passphr.append(secrets.choice(words_lst))
print(passphr)
This prints out:
['cognitive']
['cognitive', 'shakespeare']
['cognitive', 'shakespeare', 'connectors']
['cognitive', 'shakespeare', 'connectors', 'municipal']
How do I make it print out only the last line with all the words joined together?
You can use join and print outside of the loop.
passphr = []
for r in range(4):
passphr.append(secrets.choice(words_lst))
print(''.join(passphr))
Outside of the loop do:
passphr = ''.join(passphr)
So:
passphr = []
for r in range(4):
passphr.append(secrets.choice(words_lst))
passphr = ''.join(passphr)
print(passphr)
>>> cognitiveshakespeareconnectorsmunicipal
Because you have print inside the loop, you are printing each time passphr is appended to. If you only want it to print once, the print statement has to be outside of the loop. To print the contents of the list as one word:
print (''.join(passphr)
cognitiveshakespeareconnectorsmunicipal
