String Concatenation in Python
Concatenation is the process of joining two strings together. You can concatenate strings using the +
operator, just as you would add numbers. For instance, you can combine words with an article, but concatenation does not automatically insert spaces between the strings you are joining.
# Article and word article = "The" country = "Netherlands" # Concatenate without a space print(article + country) # Concatenate with a space between print(article + " " + country) # Add blank space between
You can only concatenate strings with other strings. This means you can't directly concatenate a word like 'word'
with a number like 1
. To do so, convert the number to a string using str(1)
before concatenating.
# Variables to store the greeting message and user ID greeting = "Welcome, user #" user_id = 42 # Attempting direct concatenation (will raise an error) # print(greeting + user_id) # Correct way: Convert the number to a string print(greeting + str(user_id))
Everything was clear?
