printing a string loop with range

Question

I am trying to make the following print , but cannot make this print goes from 1 to 100

 for name in range(1,100):

 print(/html/body/div[3]/div/div/div[2]/ul/div/li[name]/div/div[1]/div[2]/div[1]/a)

The idea is to print those all these string value 100 times which goes from 1 to 100 inside li

In the question, your indentation is not correct, and your string isn't surrounded by quotes. Are these correct in your code? — ChrisW, Dec 17 '18 at 00:06
`range(a,b)` counts from `a` to `b-1`. Use `range(1,101)` to count 1-100. — Mark Tolonen, Dec 17 '18 at 01:19

Your indent is not correct in the second line, and your string is not correct.

This is my solution

for name in range(1,100):
    print("/html/body/div[3]/div/div/div[2]/ul/div/li[" + str(name) + "]/div/div[1]/div[2]/div[1]/a")

similar as below with f-string formatting

for name in range(1,101):
    print(f"/html/body/div[3]/div/div/div[2]/ul/div/li[{name}]/div/div[1]/div[2]/div[1]/a")

updated: 1. correct the range(1, 101) 2. f-string was supported since Python 3.6+

101 instead of 100 and this solution is only for Python 3.6+ – MarianD Dec 17 '18 at 12:21
