Study Notes

String Formatting

  • String formatting can be done with the .format() method
  • Example:
    • print('I study at {0} {1} and I am {2} years old.'.format(Uni_name_1, Uni_name_2, Age))
  • Output:
    • I study at Khalifa University and I am 18 years old.

Literal Constants: Strings

  • A string is a collection of characters
  • Can be written using single quotes ('HELLO') or double quotes ("HELLO")
  • Strings in double quotes are identical to strings in single quotes

Python IDE

  • Use the IDE provided in Lab0 to run Python code.
  • Example:
    • a = 4
    • b = 5
    • print(a > 1 or b > 1)
  • Output: True

Logical Operators

  • The Logical NOT operator takes a single expression and negates the value.
  • The Logical AND operator combines two or more expressions using the and keyword.
  • The Logical OR operator combines two or more expressions using the or keyword.

.format() Method

  • The .format() method can be used to format strings.
  • The order of arguments in the .format() method does not need to match the order in the string.
  • Example:
    • print('I study at {2} {0} and I am {1} years old.'.format(Uni_name_1, Uni_name_2, Age))
  • This will print:
    • I study at 18 Khalifa and I am University years old.
