How to print os environment variables with Python

23 January,2022 by Rambler

Question: I can print out the os environment variables using  Python with :        

                    import os;

                    print(os.environ);

 

but it prints out all the environment variables without any line breaks. How can I write  a  for loop that will list out all the environment variables one per line in a more readable format

Answer:  This Python for statetment  will  extract every envrionment variable from the os and sort in ascending order through the use of the sorted() function.

import os;

for i, l in sorted(os.environ.items()):     

    print(i+':',l)     

    print('\n')
