Ways to Format Strings When Printing in Python

Python offers multiple ways to format strings:

1. Using Commas in print()

name = "Alice"

age = 25

print("Name:", name, "Age:", age)

2. Using str.format()

name = "Alice"

age = 25

print("Name: {} Age: {}".format(name, age))

print("Name: {0} Age: {1}".format(name, age))

3. Using f-Strings (Python 3.6+) — Most Recommended

name = "Alice"

age = 25

print(f"Name: {name} Age: {age}")

4. Using % Operator (Old Style)

name = "Alice"

age = 25

print("Name: %s Age: %d" % (name, age))

What are Variables in Python?

Variables are used to store data that can be used and manipulated throughout the program. In
Python, you don't need to declare a variable with its data type—Python figures it out at runtime.

x = 10 # integer

name = "John" # string

price = 99.99 # float


Variable Naming Rules in Python

1. Can contain letters (a-z, A-Z), digits (0–9), and underscores (_).

2. Must start with a letter or underscore, but not a digit.

o name, _value, a1

o 1value, @name

3. Case-sensitive – Name, name, and NAME are all different.

4. Should not use Python keywords as variable names (e.g., if, for, while, class, etc.).
