PYTHON STRINGS

Understanding The Basics And Advanced Features


Introduction To Python Strings

• What is a string?
 A string is a sequence of characters enclosed within single (‘ ’), double (“ ”), or triple quotes (‘ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’
or “ ” ” ” ” ”).
 In Python, strings are immutable, meaning they are can not be changed after they are created.

• Example:
 text = "Hello, World!”
Creating Strings In Python
• Single and Double Quotes:
 Both can be used to create strings in python.
 Example: str1 = ‘Hello’
str2 = “World”
• Triple Quotes:
 Used for multiline strings or docstrings
 Example:
 Input: multiline_str = ‘’’This is
a multiline string.’’’
 Output: This is
a multiline string.
Strings Indexing And Slicing
• String Indexing:
 Access individual characters using index positions (starting from 0).
 Example:
 Input:
 text = “Python”
Print(text[0])
 Output:
 P
• String Slicing:
 Extract part of string using start : stop : step .
 Example:
 Input:- print(text[0:3]) # Output:- Pyt
 Input:- print(text[::2]) # Output:- Pto
String Methods
• Common String Methods:
• Len() : Returns the length of string.
• Lower() : Converts all character to lower character.
• Upper() : Converts all character to upper character.
• Strip() : Remove whitespace from both ends.
• Replace() : Replace a substring with another
• Example:
• my_string = “ Hello World “
• Input: print(my_string.strip()) # Output: “Hello World”
• Input: print(my_string.upper()) # Output: “HELLO WORLD”
String Concatenation And Formatting
• Concatenation:
• Use + to combine strings.
• Example:
• Input: greeting = “Hello” + “ “ + “World” # Output: Hello World
• String Formatting:
• f-strings: Easier way to embed expressions inside string literals.
• Example:
• Input: name = “John”
print(name) # Output: John
• Input: print(f”Hello, {name}!”) # Output: Hello, John!
Escape Sequences
• Special characters in strings: Backslash is used to introduce escape sequences.
• \n : New line
• \t : Tab
• \\ : Backslash
• Example:
• Input: print(“Hello\nWorld”) # Output: Hello (New line) World
• Input: print(“Hello\tWorld”) # Output: Hello World
• Input: print(“Hello\\World”) # Output: Hello\World
Strings Are Immutable
• Immutability:
• Strings cannot be changed after creation. Any operation on string creates a new string.
• Example:
• Input: text = “Hello”
text[0] = “J” # This will raise an error
Advanced String Operations
• Joining a List of Strings:
• Use join() to combine list element into a single string.
• Example:
• Input: words = “Hello”, “World”
sentence = “ ”.join(words) # Output: “Hello World”
• Splitting a String:
• Use split() to break a string into a list.
• Example:
• Input: sentence = “Hello World”
words = sentence.split() # Output: [‘Hello’, ‘World’]
Strings Validation Methods
• Common validation maethods:
• isalpha() : Checks is all characters are alphabetic.
• Isdigit() : Checks if all characters are digits.
• Isalnum() : Checks If all characters are alphanumeric.
• Example:
• Input: print(“Hello World”.isalpha()) # Output: True
• Input: print(“12345”.isdigit()) # Output: True
• Input: print(“Hello123.isalnum()) # Output: True
Conclusion
• Key Takeaways:
• Strings are a fundamental data type in python.
• They are immutable and support various operations and methods for manipulation.
• String formatting, slicing, and advanced operations like joining and splitting are useful in many applications.
