Question

A simple question on a python module. Let’s say I have the following code:

for i in range(1000):
  print i

It’ll output something along the lines of:

1

2

‘Snip’

999

Is it possible to have the program output all the numbers on the same line? I’m not talking about “1, 2, 3 ..” rather I want the line value to change to the current i

If you want the character to be overwritten/replaced each time, you may need to use a terminal control library like ‘curses’. Here’s a Python how-to article to get you started.
