How do I cycle in “pyautogui” and write each number in the cycle?

Question

I'd like to write a cycle that'd write:

data1, data2, data3, data(n)

Here is my python code:

import pyautogui
for i in 2:
pyautogui.typewrite("data"$i"")

Thank you.

import pyautogui
for i in range(1, 5):
    pyautogui.click(476, 679) 
    pyautogui.click(clicks=3) 
    pyautogui.typewrite(['delete']) 
    value = -0.5 + (i - 1) * 0.00001 
    pyautogui.typewrite("value")  
    pyautogui.typewrite(['enter'])
    pyautogui.click(169, 681) 
    pyautogui.click(330, 685) 
    pyautogui.click(448, 174) 
    pyautogui.typewrite("data{}".format(i))
    pyautogui.click(978, 664) 

Answer 1

The problem is that you have several syntax errors in your code and you're not using the for loop correctly.

In order of occurrence:

1. the i variable is a value not an index, to get an index you need to use the enumerate function
2. the number 2 isn't a valid variable name , try changing it to: two
3. there is no $ formatting in python, use the format method instead

Here, try replacing your code with this:

import pyautogui

for i in range(1, 5):
  pyautogui.typewrite("data{}".format(i))

NOTE: I don't mean to sound rude but I'd suggest checking out Sentdex's Python3 basics series , which is what I used to get started with Python.

UPDATE: to get a range of numbers (without having to type each number manually) use the range function instead.

Good luck.

Answer 2

Great question,

Firstly make sure you have all dependencies installed for your OS. find out more here

pip3 install pyautogui

open terminal and run :

python3

import pyautogui
for i in range(0, 10):
    pyautogui.typewrite("data%d, " % i)

Hope this helps. :)
