How do I remove the space caused by commas separating a variable and string (Python 2.7.5)

Question

I'm new to python, I've only been using it for about 5 months but I'm ambitious and am currently working on a project to help me in the long run in terms of GCSEs.

print PercentComplete, "% complete"

I want to remove the space so instead of it printing "6.66 % complete", it would print "6.66% complete"

Many thanks Miles

Use string formatting - it's much more flexible and robust. In this case:

print "{}% complete".format(PercentComplete)

do print str(PercentComplete)+"% complete"

In your answer, you were printing two different things. Here you combine it into one item and print it

A common way to do it is using string format.

print('%.2f %% complete' % PercentComplete)

This way you always will have the number correctly formatted.

The output will be

6.66% complete
