Trying to split a string into a list, reverse the order of the list, and then print out a string of the...












0















I have a string that I split into a list, and am able to successfully print it out correctly in reversed order. However, when I join the list back into a string, it just stays as a list. Where is my join function going wrong?



My code:



sample_string = 'Hello Dragon and Snakie'



words = sample_string.split(" ")

reordered = str(words[::-1])

final = "".join(reordered)

print(final)


expected: Snakie and Dragon Hello



actual: ['Snakie', 'and', 'Dragon', 'Hello']



Thank You

  • Your output is actually a string--a string with brackets so it looks like a list. reordered is a string, not a list. Just take out the str function and add a space for your join method to space out the words.

Replace this line:



reordered = str(words[::-1])


With:



reordered = words[::-1]


Because you make the list into a string with a list in it, so it won't join for the list.



And also replace this line:



final = "".join(reordered)


With:



final = " ".join(reordered)


Since you wanna join with space.

Monofisismo

Image
Monofisismo (do grego: monos - "único, singular" e physis - "natureza") é o ponto de vista cristológico que defende que, depois da união do divino e do humano na encarnação histórica, Jesus Cristo, como encarnação do Filho ou Verbo ( Logos ) de Deus, teria apenas uma única "natureza", a divina, e não uma síntese de ambas. O monofisismo é contraposto pelo diofisismo (ou "diafisismo"), que defende que Jesus preservou em si as duas naturezas. Historicamente, o monofisismo se refere primordialmente à posição dos que (especialmente no Egito e, em menor grau, na Síria) rejeitaram as decisões do Concílio de Calcedônia em 451 (o quarto concílio ecumênico). Os membros mais moderados entre eles, porém, defendem a teologia "miafisita", que se tornou a oficial para as Igrejas Ortodoxas Orientais. Muitos ortodoxos orientais, porém, rejeitam essa classificação, mesmo como um termo genérico, mas ele é amplamente utilizado na literatura históri...

Olmecas

Monumento 1, uma das quatro cabeças colossais encontradas em La Venta, com altura aproximada de 3 metros Olmecas é a designação do povo e da civilização que estiveram na origem da antiga cultura pré-colombiana da Mesoamérica e que se desenvolveram nas regiões tropicais do centro-sul do atual México durante o pré-clássico, próximo de onde hoje estão localizados os estados mexicanos de Veracruz e Tabasco, no Istmo de Tehuantepec, numa zona designada área nuclear olmeca. A cultura olmeca floresceu nesta região aproximadamente entre 1500 e 400 a.C., [ 1 ] e crê-se que tenha sido a civilização-mãe de todas as civilizações mesoamericanas que se desenvolveram posteriormente. [ 2 ] No entanto, desconhece-se a sua exacta filiação étnica, ainda que existam numerosas hipóteses colocadas para tentar resolver esta questão. O etnónimo olmeca foi cunhado pelos arqueólogos do século XX, e não devem confundir-se com os muito posteriores olmecas-xicalancas que ocuparam vários locais do México...
