Typewritter effect with variable in text in Python

Question

I want to make typewritter effect with delay between each character.

However my problem is when I put a variable between the text it doesn't work.

import sys,time

message = "What's your name?\n"

def typewritter(message):
    for char in message:
        sys.stdout.write(char)
        sys.stdout.flush()
        if char != ("\n"):
            time.sleep(0.1)
        else:
            time.sleep(1)

typewritter(message)
    
name = str(input(''))

namehello = ("Hello ",name, " I'm .........")

typewritter(namehello)

the first part works but not the second, anyone knows how?.

You defined namehello as tuple not string, keep namehello as string to make it work (using an f-string for example):

namehello = f"Hello {name} I'm ........."

you can use "Textfx" library for add typing effects to your text.

first, install textfx library pip install textfx

then use typeeffect() for effect your text. sample code:

from textfx import typeeffect

typeeffect("Hello, world!", delay=0.1)

Hope this helps!
