Use print item, to make the print statement omit the newline. In Python 3, it's print(item, end=" "). If you want every number to display in the same place, use for example (Python 2.7): to = 20 digits = len(str(to - 1)) delete = "\b" * (digits + 1) for i in range(to): print "{0}{1:{2}}".format(delete, i, digits), In Python 3, it's a bit more complicated; here you need to flush sys.stdout or it won't print anything until after the loop has finished: import sys to = 20 digits = len(str(to - 1)) delete = "\b" * (digits) for i in range(to): print("{0}{1:{2}}".format(delete, i, digits), end="") sys.stdout.flush()
