If you would want to put multiple values into the string you could make use of format

nums = [1,2,3]
plot.savefig('hanning{0}{1}{2}.pdf'.format(*nums))

Would result in the string hanning123.pdf. This can be done with any array.

I had a need for an extended version of this  instead of embedding a single number in a string  I needed to generate a series of file names of the form  file1 pdf    file2 pdf  etc  This is how it worked     file    str i      pdf  for i in range 1 4
