How to avoid creating a newline when using if-else in f-string expression

Please see the below minimal example,

printbbb = True
print(f"""AAA
{'''BBB''' if printbbb else ''}
CCC""")

This prints

AAA
BBB
CCC

as desired, however, if I set printbbb to False, it prints

AAA

CCC

How can I change the code so that it will print

AAA
CCC

when printbbb is set to False?

>Solution :

You could use a list to improve readability:

printbbb = True

to_print = ["AAA"]
if printbbb:
    to_print.append("BBB")
to_print.append("CCC")
print("\n".join(to_print))

Or you could conditionally add a newline character:

nl = "\n"
printbbb = True
print(f"""AAA{nl + "BBB" if printbbb else ""}
CCC""")

Maybe even use three print statements:

printbbb = True
print("AAA")
if printbbb:
    print("BBB")
print("CCC")
