Strings in Python

  • In Python, strings are defined by enclosing them in either single or double quotes. Multiline strings can be defined by enclosing them in triple single or double quotes.
  • Indexing in strings starts at 0, and Python also supports negative indexing.
  • String slicing allows cutting strings into parts using syntax like val[start, stop, step].
  • Python offers various string-specific methods like capitalize(), center(width, fillchar), count(sub[, start[, end]]), endswith(sub[, start[, end]], expandtabs(tabsize=8), and format(*args, **kwargs).
  • Other methods include index(sub[, start[, end]]), isalnum(), join(iterable), lower(), partition(), and replace(old, new, count=-1).
  • Furthermore, Python strings support methods like split(sep=None, maxsplit=-1), strip(chars=None), rstrip, lstrip, and zfill(width) for various string operations.
  • These methods offer functionalities like counting occurrences, checking alphanumeric characters, joining strings, converting cases, partitioning strings, string replacement, splitting strings, stripping characters, and padding zeros.
  • Understanding and using these string methods is essential for effective string manipulation in Python.
