    Study Notes

    Strings in Python

    • A string is a sequence of characters, which can be alphabets, numbers, special characters, or any other writable characters.
    • Strings can be defined using single quotes or double quotes.
    • A single-line string is a string that contains only one line, and it can be as long as desired.
    • Multi-line strings are defined using three single quotes or three double quotes at the start and end, and can contain multiple lines of text.

    Declaring and Printing Strings

    • A string can be declared by assigning a value to a variable using single quotes or double quotes.
    • The print() function is used to print a string.

    String Functions

    • The len() function is used to determine the length of a string, i.e., the number of characters it contains.
    • The in keyword is used to check if a certain character or string exists within another string.
    • The type() function can be used to determine the data type of a variable, which can be a Boolean (bool) if it's used to check the presence of a string.

    Slicing Strings

    • Slicing is a method to carve out specific portions of a string.
    • The syntax for slicing is string_variable[starting_point:ending_point].
    • If the starting point is not specified, it defaults to 0.
    • Slicing can be used on both string variables and string literals.

    Modifying Strings

    • The upper() function is used to convert a string to uppercase.
    • The lower() function is used to convert a string to lowercase.
    • The strip() function is used to remove spaces from the beginning and end of a string.
    • The format() function is used to format strings with placeholders.

    Other String Functions

    • There are many other functions available for strings, which will be covered in further documentation and exercises.
