I'm working on assignment for my Python 3 programming class. It's a database to look up movies and the year they came out. However, I'm having a hard time printing the output without extra brackets and quotes:
# Build a dictionary containing the specified movie collection
list_2005 = [["Munich", "Steven Spielberg"]]
list_2006 = [["The Departed", "Martin Scorsese"], ["The Prestige", "Christopher Nolan"]]
list_2007 = [["Into the Wild", "Sean Penn"]]
movies = {
'2005': list_2005,
'2006': list_2006,
'2007': list_2007
}
# Prompt the user for a year
# Displaying the title(s) and directors(s) from that year
user_year = str(input("Enter a year between 2005 and 2007:\n"))
if user_year in movies:
for name in movies[user_year]:
print("%s" % ', '.join(name))
print()
elif user_year not in movies:
print("N/A")
# Display menu
user_choice = ''
while user_choice != 'q':
print("MENU\nSort by:\ny - Year\nd - Director\nt - Movie title\nq - Quit")
print()
user_choice = str(input("Choose an option:\n"))
if user_choice == 'y':
for key, value in sorted(movies.items()):
print("%s:" % key)
print(" %s" % ''.join(str(movies[key])))
# Carry out the desired option: Display movies by year,
# display movies by director, display movies by movie title, or quit
I would like this output to be:
2005:
Munich, Steven Spielberg
2006:
The Prestige, Christopher Nolan
The Departed, Martin Scorsese
etc.
The output I am getting:
2005:
['Munich', 'Steven Spielberg']
2006:
[['The Prestige', 'Christopher Nolan'], ['The Departed', 'Martin Scorsese']]
etc.
Replace
print(" %s" % ''.join(str(movies[key])))
with
print("\t" + '\n\t'.join("{}, {}".format(m[0], m[1]) for m in movies[key]))
