Python - format strings
0 points
In this article, we would like to show you how to format strings in Python.
Quick solution:
xxxxxxxxxx1
color = "red"2
text = "The apple is {}."3
4
print(text.format(color)) # The apple is red.
In this example, to format the string we use format() method that takes the passed arguments and puts them in the place of the placeholders {}.
xxxxxxxxxx1
name = "Tom"2
age = 253
4
text = "This is my friend {}, he is {}."5
6
print(text.format(name, age))Output:
xxxxxxxxxx1
This is my friend Tom, he is 25.You can also specify the placeholders order by using numbered indexes ({0}, {1}) or named indexes ({name}, {age}).
xxxxxxxxxx1
name = "Tom"2
age = 253
4
text = "This is my friend {1}, he is {0}."5
6
print(text.format(age, name))or
xxxxxxxxxx1
text = "This is my friend {name}, he is {age}."2
3
print(text.format(name="Tom", age=25))Output:
xxxxxxxxxx1
This is my friend Tom, he is 25.
