Hellas.Thebes module¶

yet some more code snippets named after the ancient city of Thebes

Hellas.Thebes.format_header(frmt)[source]¶

creates a header string from a new style format string useful when printing dictionaries

Parameters:	frmt (str) – a new style format string
Returns:	a table header string

assumptions for frmt specs:

all have a separator = ‘|’ and include a key size format directive i.e.: ‘{key:size}’
no other character allowed in frmt except separator

Example:

>>> frmt = '|{count:12,d}|{percent:7.2f}|{depth:5d}|'
>>> data_dict = {'count': 100, 'percent': 10.5, 'depth': 10}
>>> print(format_header(frmt)); print(frmt.format(**data_dict))
............................
|   count    |percent|depth|
............................
|         100|  10.50|   10|
