COMPUTER SCIENCE : STRING MANIPULATION

Strings manipulation
Strings: It is a collection of characters kept in single
quotes, double quotes or triple quotes. It is a immutable
data type.
Example: a= ‘python’ or a= “python” or a= ‘’’ python ‘’’
Indexing: it refers to assigning integers or numbers to
each character of the string to access them.
It is of 2 types:
1. forward indexing: it starts from left to right and
numbers assigned are from 0 to length -1.
Example:

2. backward indexing: it starts from right to left and


numbers are assigned from -1 to length (negative)
Example:

String operations:
1. Concatenation: it joins 2 or more strings together by
using the ‘ + ’ operator. But a number and string can not
be operated by + at the same time.
Example:

2. Repetition/Replication: it repeats/replicates a string a


given number of times by using the ‘*’operator. But it
can’t work on string*string.
Example:

3. Membership: it tells if a string is a part of other string


or not by using the ‘in’ or ‘not in’ operators and gives
output as true or false.

4. Slicing: it fetches out a specific part of the string with


the help of the index numbers or range given by user. It
works on both forward and backward indexing.
*The range given has the format of
[starting : ending : skipping] as [3:10:2]
By default the skipping value is 1.
Example:

5.Traversing: it refers to iterating through the elements of


a string (one character at a time) by using for loop.
Example:
