As mentioned earlier, the f strings or formatted string literal is a great way to format strings. The thing is that if we were to use the format method to format the strings, then it would look something like this. Let’s have a look at a simple program, where we are using the format method, and then we will have a look at the f \u2013 string.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
user_name = “GyaniPandit”
message = “Hello {}”.format(user_name)
print(message)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As you can see in the above program, we have a user name, and then we have a message, where we are using the format method. Here, we have a replacement field(placeholder), where, we are going to have the user_name, according to the format method that we are using here. After that, we are just printing the message.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Output –<\/strong> Now, let’s try the same thing with help of the f \u2013 string. But the question is that how can we create the f \u2013 string? Well, it is easy, and we just need to write f<\/strong> or F<\/strong> before the string, and we need to use the curly brackets as placeholders that contain the expression, which would be replaced with the value. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Let’s have a look at a simple program, through which, we can understand how can we use the f string, or formatted string literal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n user_name = “GyaniPandit” As you can see, we again have the user_name, and then we have a message, where we are trying to format the string, using the formatted string literal. As can be seen in the program, it is more readable, and more understandable. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Let’s have a look at the output of the above program –<\/p>\n\n\n\n Output – <\/strong> As you can see, we are getting the formatted string as our output. Let’s have a look at another example, through which, we can understand the concept in a better way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n user_name = “GyaniPandit” As you can see in the above program, we are trying to format the string, using the f string. You can see that it is much more readable and understandable, and it is very easy when we have multiple expressions to be replaced. So, using the f strings is much more convenient in many situations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Even we can also include any valid python expression here since the f strings are evaluated at runtime. So, this allows you to do something like this –<\/p>\n\n\n\n print(f”{20 * 5}”)<\/p>\n\n\n\n Including this simple instruction in the program, and executing then, we can find that we get the result of the expression.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Now, when we have been exploring the f-strings, we have only seen values of the variables or some simple expressions here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n But we can also call some functions\/methods with the f strings. So, let’s have a look at a simple program, which, we are going to call a simple function.<\/p>\n\n\n\n list1 = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6] As you can see in the above program, we have a simple list, with 6 items in it. After that, we are trying to format a string, and in there, we are calling the len function, so as to get the length of the list. So, the f \u2013 string is much more convenient to use at times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n So, as per the requirement, you can call the user-defined functions here as well, and get the desired output.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In this quick tutorial, we understood a great way to format strings, which is f-strings, or formatted string literal in Python. You can explore the f-strings, and can make use of the f \u2013 string to format the string as per your requirement in the programs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In this article, we are going to understand f-strings, or formatted string literal, which is a great way to format strings. Other than this, we have the format method as well, but the f-string is more readable and more concise than the other ways for formatting, and also they are faster. It is quite similar […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":4381,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[28],"tags":[62,26],"class_list":{"0":"post-4380","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-python","8":"tag-f-strings-in-python","9":"tag-python"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/gyanipandit.com\/programming\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4380","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/gyanipandit.com\/programming\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/gyanipandit.com\/programming\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gyanipandit.com\/programming\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gyanipandit.com\/programming\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4380"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/gyanipandit.com\/programming\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4380\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4382,"href":"https:\/\/gyanipandit.com\/programming\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4380\/revisions\/4382"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gyanipandit.com\/programming\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4381"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/gyanipandit.com\/programming\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4380"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gyanipandit.com\/programming\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4380"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gyanipandit.com\/programming\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4380"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
