Python string building from array

I've got an array of strings of the form ['this', 'that'].

I need to get a string at the end that says:

('this', 'that')

I know I can get the comma in with .join(), how can I get the quotes around each item in the most elegant way?

Like vaultah said use repr() which is used to compute the string representation of an object.

For example,

if array = ['this', 'that', 'is', 'the', 'input']

then array = repr(tuple(array))

will result in: ('this', 'that', 'is', 'the', 'input')
