set variable to "print" in python 2 -


i want have alias print statement. following method fails syntaxerror:

>>> = print

how can i, if @ all, set new alias print statement? python version -> 2.7

normally, can't shadow python keywords (which used make python "statements" such print, for, exec, if, ...). however, print special. ease compatibility python3.x, can drop print statement using

from __future__ import print_function

at top of module (before other imports other non-__future__ imports).

this disables print statement , unshadows print function (which can shadow once more whatever user defined function want). e.g. (from repl):

python 2.7.10 (default, oct 23 2015, 18:05:06)  [gcc 4.2.1 compatible apple llvm 7.0.0 (clang-700.0.59.5)] on darwin type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" more information. >>> __future__ import print_function >>> def foo(): pass ...  >>> print = foo >>>  >>> print('foo') traceback (most recent call last):   file "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> typeerror: foo() takes no arguments (1 given)

with said, think aliasing builtin functions bad idea. future readers of code (including yourself) confused when try use code , print doesn't conditioned believe. remember zen of python (import this):

...

readability counts.

Unlimited choices in BASH case statement -

consider simple bash snippet: case $option in 1) image=${options[0]%.tar} ;; 2) image=${options[1]%.tar} ;; 3) image=${options[2]%.tar} ;; 4) image=${options[3]%.tar} ;; *) echo "invalid option" exit 1 esac in real script numbers goes 30. makes pretty long. can somehow specify cases variable? something this: case $option in $i) image=${options[$(($i-1))]%.tar} any pointer appreciated. you can match against multiple patterns in single clause: case $option in 1|2|3: echo "$option one, 2 or three" ;; esac if still typing you, can use simple pattern matching: case $option in # following matches # - single-digit numbers 0-9 # - two-digit numbers starting either 1 or 2 # - number 30 [0-9]|[12][0-9]|30) image=${options[$(($option-1))]%.tar} ;; *) echo "invalid option" 1>&2 exit 1 esac
