How can I catch a python loop result in one variable

Question

I am trying to loop my database output and get the result of each loop as variable with following code.

for item in output:
    v=''.join(item)
    link="https://example.com/user/{}".format(v)
    print(link)

I already tried to put that in a variable with:

var=for item in output:
    v=''.join(item)
    link="https://example.com/user/{}".format(v)
    print(link)

but that did not work

It's unclear what you're asking, but probably you want to initiate an empty list or dictionary before the loop that you can then fill during the loop — Chris_Rands

Are you trying to get all the items into one variable, after that create the link and print it ? — ionut

@ionut exactly, that was my goal. The answer below did work for me. Thank's for your help — Felix

You might mean that you want a list of links:

var = ["https://example.com/user/{}".format(''.join(item)) for item in output]
