How can I write variables to same line of a file?

I am trying to keep variables in a file.

if I have all variables at the same time, I can write them all like below.
Code:
echo $var1","$var2","$var3

But, these variables are being calculated at different times then they are lost
so I want to keep them in a file seperated by "," .
Code:
echo $var1 >> log_file
.
.
.
.
echo ","$var2 >> log_file
.
.
.

is there an option of echo in order to write the variables without creating a new line in the log file.

thanks in advance

CODE is the name of a remote control key of REMOTE, as it appears in the lircd configuration file. NUM is the transmitter number of the hardware device. For the LIST DIRECTIVE, REMOTE and/or CODE can be empty: LIST "" "" - list all configured remote names LIST REMOTE "" - list all codes of REMOTE LIST REMOTE CODE - list only CODE of REMOTE The SIMULATE command only works if it has been explicitly enabled in lircd. -h --help display usage summary -v --version display version -d --device use given lircd socket [/var/run/lirc/lircd] -a --address=host[:port] connect to lircd at this address -# --count=n send command n times EXAMPLES
