Re: Is there a better way? [combining f-string, thousands separator, right align]

dn <PythonList@DancesWithMice.info> wrote or quoted:

and if we really want to go over-board:

RIGHT_JUSTIFIED = ">"
THOUSANDS_SEPARATOR = ","
s_format = F"{RIGHT_JUSTIFIED}{S_FIELD_WIDTH}{THOUSANDS_SEPARATOR}"

def PROCEDURE_DEFINIION( NAME, BODY ):
    return f'\ndef {NAME}():\n{" "*4}{BODY}\n'

def PRINT_STATEMENT( WHAT_TO_PRINT ):
    return f'print( "{WHAT_TO_PRINT}" )'

def PROCEDURE_INVOCATION( WHAT_TO_INVOKE ):
    return f'{WHAT_TO_INVOKE}()'

exec\
( PROCEDURE_DEFINIION( "f", PRINT_STATEMENT( "Hello, world!" ))+
  PROCEDURE_INVOCATION( "f" ))
