[Tkinter] how to update label text from list

[Roshan]

Hi

I want to update 5 different label value from list items.

I am following below code.

self.dLabel1.configure(text = f"button clicked times {spData[1:2]}")

my problem is when label update it also add side brackets & single quote

button clicked times ['234']

I want label text as

button clicked times 234

how to solve this issue ?

What is spData? From the print it appears spData[1:2] is a list.

My guess is a spData is a list of numbers (spData = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]) and you want to get the number at index 1. To do that use spData[1]. spData[1:2] returns a list of the entries from index 1 to index 1.

yes, spData[1:2] is elemnt of list items.

& my list is like this

['#', '336', '908', '120', '863', '789', '3', '\n']

So you will want to use:

self.dLabel1.configure(text = f"button clicked times {spData[1]}")

Now you will get a string instead of a list. No more brackets.

Sir,
error is

IndexError: list index out of range

If I run this:

spData = ['#', '336', '908', '120', '863', '789', '3', '\n']
text = f"button clicked times {spData[1]}"
print(text)

I see this:

Output:
button clicked times 336

Where is the disconnect between you and me? Is spData different than what I used above?

[Roshan]

Yes sir
right according to print this works ok.

but when i print it on button then result is like this

# when i excute this program 
self.dLabel1.configure(text = f" button clicked times {spData[1:2]}")

result is:
button clicked times ['336']

# when i write according to you generate error
self.dLabel1.configure(text = f"button clicked times {spData[1]}")

above code create error:

IndexError: list index out of range

I would debug with a bunch of print statements to understand exactly what is going on.

print('spData is a', type(spData), 'size =', len(spData))

# Since spData[1] is out of range
print('spData[0] is', type(spData[0]), spData[0])

A real puzzler!
