Format a float and put in a list

[David Sulkin]

Hello all,

 

I found a workaround solution.  

 

I use the items in the list to be placed in a string, so I just
formatted the entire string to remove any single quotes.  Duh!

 

Thanks

Subject: Format a float and put in a list

 

Hello,

 

I have a float that I am trying to format to 2 decimal places, put the
formatted float in a list and then output this to a file.  My problem
is, once I format my float, my float has quotations around the float due
to my formatting.  I am doing the following:

 

(  "%.2f" % float( list[x] ) )

 

Is there a way I can format the float so when I see it in the file it
looks like [19.45, 20.52, 16.56] instead of ['19.45', '20.52', '16.56']?

 

Thanks in advance.
