STRING

In Python, a string is a sequence of characters enclosed in single or double quotes. Strings can be traversed using index values, concatenated with the '+' operator, and replicated with the '*' operator. Various built-in methods and functions are available for string manipulation, such as len(), capitalize(), and split().

STRINGS

What are strings?


In Python, a consecutive sequence of characters , which are enclosed or surrounded
by single (' ') or double (" ") quotes is known as string. This sequence of characters
may include a letter, a number, special character or a backslash.

For example,
Place = "Hathras"

Traversing A String
Traversing a string means accessing all the elements of the string one after other by
using the subscript or index value.

For example,
String = "Information"

I n f o r m a t i o n

0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

-11 -10 -9 -8 -7 -6 -5 -4 -3 -2 -1

Each character in a string has an index value, indexing starts at 0 and must be an
Integer. Individual elements can be accessed by typing index value inside [ ] square
brackets.

For example,
print (string [2]) = f
Iteration through string
for i in string:
print (I,"end=",") = I,n,f,o,r,m,a,t,i,o,n

Concatenation string ('+' Operator)


Name1="Computer"
Name1="Science"
print(Name1+Name2) = ComputerScience

Replicating strings('*' Operator)


The * operator creates a new string by replicating multiple copies of the name string.
Name = "Computer"
print (Name*3) = ComputerComputerComputer
Membership Operators (in, not in)
'in' operator: It returns true if a character / substring exists in the given string.
'not in' operator: It returns true if character/substring does not exist in the given
string.

Comparison Operators
We can use relational / comparison Operators (>,<,>=,<=,==,!=) to compare two
strings.
Str1 = "Hello"
Str1 = "hello"
print (Str1 == Str2) = False

String slicing
Slicing is used to retrieve a subset of values. A slice of a string is nothing but a
substring.
Syntax:
String_name[start:end]

Note:- String are immutable.

STRING METHODS AND BUILT-IN FUNCTIONS

1. len() - This Method returns the length of the string.

2. capitalise() - This method returns the exact copy of the string with the first letter
in uppercase.

3. split() - The split method breaks up a string at the specified separator and
returns a list substring.

4. isalnum() - Returns True if the characters in the string are alphanumeric.

5. isalpha() - Returns True if all the characters in the string are alphabetic.

6. isdigit() - Returns True if all the characters in the string are digits.

7. isspace() - Returns True if there are only whitespace characters in the string.

8. islower() - Returns True if all cased characters in the string are lowercase.

9. isupper() - Returns True if all cased characters in the string are Uppercase.
10. lower() - Returns a copy of string converted to lowercase.

11. upper() Returns a copy of string converted to uppercase.

12. Istrip() - Returns a copy of string with leading characters removed.

13. rstrip() - Returns a copy of string with trailing characters removed.
