Print output only separated by commas

Hi I'm trying to print write on a .csv file on python and I want my output to only be separated by commas. I removed the brackets from print() so that no parenthesis were present but this also cleared out commas. How can I fix this? This is my code:

print self.t, len(self.sAgentList), len(self.iAgentList), len(self.rAgentList)

The best solution is to use a csv.writer to write the data.

import csv
import sys
writer = csv.writer(sys.stdout)
writer.writerow(['1', '2', '3'])

Here I write to sys.stdout, but you can write to whatever file-like object that you like. Note that writerow takes a list of strings. If that isn't what you have, you need to make sure that the inputs are strings... e.g.:

writer.writerow([
    str(item) for item in 
    (self.t, len(self.sAgentList), len(self.iAgentList), len(self.rAgentList))])

If you want to use print, you can supply the sep argument (assuming that you are using the print function rather than python2.x's print statement):

from __future__ import print_function
print(1, 2, 3, sep=',')
