parsing integers from a list to a command line of software

I am inside a loop with a variable y having a list in each iteration.

Input:

y= ['0', '1', '2', '3', '4', '5', '6']

Desired output:

create pressure at points 0 1 2 3 4 5 6

I tried using simple access with 

print "create pressure at points d% d% d% d% d% d% d%" % ( y[0], y[1], y[2], y[3], y[4], y[5], y[6])

gives error:

KeyError: 0

I want to parse all the value in the list to another software and for that I need to print them. In a specific manner

sensorik.cmd('create pressure at points 0 1 2 3 4 5 6')

if it can save as y[0] etc. those could be parsed as

sensorik.cmd('create pressure at points d% d% d% d% d% d% d% ' % (y[0], y[1], y[2], y[3], y[4], y[5], y[6]))

any suggestions?

Just join the list

y= ['0', '1', '2', '3', '4', '5', '6']
print 'create pressure at points', ' '.join(y)
# create pressure at points 0 1 2 3 4 5 6

Since the result you want is a string, you don't have to parse the integers.

Instead of d%, use %s (note that the percent has to be first):

>>> y= ['0', '1', '2', '3', '4', '5', '6']
>>> print "create pressure at points %s %s %s %s %s %s %s" % ( y[0], y[1], y[2], y[3], y[4], y[5], y[6])
create pressure at points 0 1 2 3 4 5 6
