Study Notes

Python Strings

Immutable Sequences: Python strings are sequences of characters, meaning they are ordered collections of characters. They are also immutable, which means you can't change individual characters within a string.
** Indexing:** Strings are indexed using numbers, starting from 0 for the first character.
Slicing: You can extract portions of a string using slicing.

String Methods

'.upper()': Conerts a string to uppercase
'.find()': Finds the index of a substring within a string.

String Operations

Concatenation: Strings can be joined together using the '+' operator. However, you cannot directly concatenate strings with integers. You must convert the integer to a string first.
