Python - insert unicode character to string
0 points
In this article, we would like to show you how to insert unicode character to string in Python.
There are three different ways how to do it:
- with escape character e.g.
\u03c0that is equal toπ, - by pasting character directly to string,
- by converting codes to a string.
Quick solution:
xxxxxxxxxx1
text = "π or \u03c0" # U+03C02
print(text) # π or πOutput:
xxxxxxxxxx1
π or π
Space is represented by 0x20 (in hex) or 32 (in dec). It is necessary to add 2 additional zeros before code (e.g. \u0020).
xxxxxxxxxx1
text = "π and \u03c0 are\u0020equal" # U+03C0 U+00202
print(text) # π and π are equalOutput:
xxxxxxxxxx1
π and π are equalIn this section you can find some emojis that we pasted directly to the string and received e.g \U0001F34F for the 🍏 (green apple emoji).
xxxxxxxxxx1
apple = "\U0001F34F"2
banana = "\U0001F34C"3
cherry = "\U0001F352"4

print(apple)6
print(banana)7
print(cherry)Output:
xxxxxxxxxx1
