Convert Numpy Array Into Comma Separated String
By Venkata KalyanIn this tutorial, you will learn how to convert NumPy array Into a comma-separated string in Python. The string is known as a group of characters together. Similarly, an array is a collection of similar data elements.
The data presented in the array() are grouped and separated into each element using a comma. The arrays will be implemented in Python using the NumPy module.
About NumPy Module:
Numerical Python (NumPy) has several builtin methods. Among those various methods, array() is one of the methods which creates an array. Hence, let’s have a look at the general attributes of an array. They are as follows.
- An array can hold many values based on a single name.
- Access the elements based on the index number.
- We can slice the elements in the array [start: end] based on the start and end position -1 elements display the results.
Structure of Array:
The structure of the array as follows:
The elements are accessed based on the index values. If the array size is “n” the last index value is [n-1] and the starting index always [0].
#----------importing NumPy module---------------- import numpy
Explanation:
from the above statement, we have imported the NumPy module.
Usage of an array:
The syntax of the array method will be as follows:
Syntax: numpy.array(data)
where
- Data must be a list or tuple or any data set.
- Array method converts the given data into an array.
Hence, let have a glance over a few examples on the array given below.
Example 1:
import numpy k=numpy.array([1,2,7]) print(k)
Output:
The output of the above code will be as follows:
array([1,2,7])
From the above example, the list (i.e. [1,2,7]) is converted to array by using the array method of the NumPy module. So, let’s have a look at the following code to perform our present task.
Code to convert a NumPy array into a comma separated string in Python
import numpy
z=numpy.array(["a","b","c"])
for i in range(0,len(z)):
print(z[i],end="")
if(i+1!=len(z)):
print(",",end="")
Output:
Hence, the output of the above code will be as follows:
a,b,c
Explanation:
From the above program, the elements presented in the array “z” will separate by comma up to last but one element. Because the last element didn’t need a comma on its suffix.
Usage:
- It will be used in text scraping and sentence correction in the PDF documentation.
- Used to find how many sentences in a given page or book
- Automated tools use a comma-separated string for sentence identification.

>>> print(“,”.join(z))
a,b,c

works just as well and is easier to read.
My point of view is to decrease the usage of inbuilt methods and try to understand the logic not inbuilt methods
yeah but how it is spelled out here is easier for a beginner to comprehend
