Is there a better way in Python?

Question

is there any better + faster to write this code:

number = 7

print("1:", number * 1)
print("2:", number * 2)
print("3:", number * 3)
print("4:", number * 4)
print("5:", number * 5)
print("6:", number * 6)
print("7:", number * 7)
print("8:", number * 8)
print("9:", number * 9)
print("10:", number * 10)

I hope an experienced python user can help me answer it! Thanks again, guys!

Answer 1

You need to use for loops. This is how your code should look

number = 7
for i in range(1,11):
  print(str(i) + ': ' + str(number*i))

Answer 2

The use of loops and f-strings (assuming you have Python 3.6 or better) make this easy:

number = 7
for i in range(1, 11):
    print(f"{i}: {number * i}")

It generates, as desired:

Or, if you want to be "clever":

number = 7
print("n".join([f"{i}: {number * i}" for i in range(1, 11)]))

No, just joking, it will work but it’s not a good idea if you value readability 🙂
