How to store multiple lines separated by enter value in a single variable in python? Example is in the description

555
554
33
2444
4555
2455
24555
2555
2335
5555
23455
2455
2344

I want to store all these values in the single variable num, how can I do that?

Solution

  • If you are working with a multiple line string you can use split given "\n" as the splitor:

    myString = """
555
554
33
2444
4555
2455
24555
2555
2335
5555
23455
2455
2344
"""
myString.strip().split("\n")

    Output

    ['555',
 '554',
 '33',
 '2444',
 '4555',
 '2455',
 '24555',
 '2555',
 '2335',
 '5555',
 '23455',
 '2455',
 '2344']

    Note that if you are working with file, you can still use the same approach, but you need to read the file first.
