How to print a container object using a value containing Unicode?

# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
x = (u 'abc/αβγ',)
print x
print x[0]
print unicode(x).encode('utf-8')
print x[0]. encode('utf-8')

(u'abc/αβγ',)
 abc/αβγ
(u'abc/αβγ',)
abc/αβγ

('abc/αβγ',)

In [25]: print str(x).decode('raw_unicode_escape')
(u'abc/αβγ', )

The following code

# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
x = (u'abc/αβγ',)
print x
print x[0]
print unicode(x).encode('utf-8')
print x[0].encode('utf-8')

…Production:

(u'abc/αβγ', )
abc/αβγ
(u'abc/αβγ',)
abc/αβγ

Is there a way to make Python print

('abc/αβγ',)

Does this do not require me to construct the string representation of the tuple by myself? (I mean “(“,”” , “Code value”, “”, “,” and “)” together?

By the way, I am using Python 2.7.1.

Thank you!< /p>

You can use’raw_unicode_escape’ to decode the str representation of the tuple.

In [25 ]: print str(x).decode('raw_unicode_escape')
(u'abc/αβγ',)
