How do I get a list of all the ASCII characters using Python?
The constants in the string module may be what you want.
All ASCII capital letters:
>>> import string>>> string.ascii_uppercase'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ'All printable ASCII characters:
>>> string.printable'0123456789abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ!"#$%&\'()*+,-./:;<=>?@[\\]^_`{|}~ \t\n\r\x0b\x0c'For every single character defined in the ASCII standard, use chr:
>>> ''.join(chr(i) for i in range(128))'\x00\x01\x02\x03\x04\x05\x06\x07\x08\t\n\x0b\x0c\r\x0e\x0f\x10\x11\x12\x13\x14\x15\x16\x17\x18\x19\x1a\x1b\x1c\x1d\x1e\x1f !"#$%&\'()*+,-./0123456789:;<=>?@ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ[\\]^_`abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz{|}~\x7f'
ASCII defines 128 characters whose byte values range from 0 to 127 inclusive. So to get a string of all the ASCII characters, you could just do
''.join(chr(i) for i in range(128))Only 100 of those are considered printable. The printable ASCII characters can be accessed via
import stringstring.printable
