Python: Stringing You Along - String Operators
(Page 4 of 4 )

There are several operators you can use on strings. Here is how some of them work:

#!/usr/local/bin/python

first ="James "

last ="Payne "

truth ="Is a bad mamma jamma"

print "Here is an example of concatenating string variables:"

print first+last+truth

print "n"

print "Here is another example of concatenating strings:"

print "I like it " + "When you call me " + "Big Poppan "

print "And here is an example of how to repeat text with variables:"

print first *3

print "You can also print it on three separate lines:"

print (first + "n") * 3

print "You can also concatenate and repeat (as we did above):"

print (first+last+truth+ "n") * 4

Note that I put a space in my strings. If I had not, the words would be bunched together. Here is the result:

  Here is an example of concatenating string variables:

  James Payne Is a bad mamma jamma

  Here is another example of concatenating strings:

  I like it When you call me Big Poppa

 

  And here is an example of how to repeat text with variables:

  James James James

  You can also print it on three separate lines:

  James

  James

  James

  You can also concatenate and repeat (as we did above):

  James Payne Is a bad mamma jamma

  James Payne Is a bad mamma jamma

  James Payne Is a bad mamma jamma

  James Payne Is a bad mamma jamma

Well that's it for this tutorial. We still have more string-a-ma-things to cover, and we will do so in the next article. So come back often and get dat learn on son.
