Question

is it possible some way to “print” in python in a fortran like way like this?

1     4.5656
2    24.0900
3   698.2300
4    -3.5000

So the decimal points is always in the same column, and we get always 3 or n decimal numbers?

Thanks

Answer 1

>>> '%11.4f' % -3.5
'    -3.5000'

or the new style formatting:

>>> '{:11.4f}'.format(-3.5)
'    -3.5000'

more about format specifiers in the docs.
