Chapter 5 Engstring Manipulation

This document provides an introduction to string manipulation in Python. It discusses how to create, traverse, compare and slice strings. It also covers string operators like + and * for concatenation and replication. Membership operators in and not in are explained. Finally, common string functions like capitalize(), find(), index(), isalpha() etc. are listed along with examples. The document concludes with assignments on printing patterns from strings, searching substrings and finding string length.

Introduction
• As we know that a sequence of characters enclosed in
single quotes, double quotes or triple quotes (‘ ‘ , “ “, ‘’’
‘’’) is called a string.
• In python, strings are immutable meaning they can’t be
changed.
• In a String, each character remains at a unique position
number or index number which goes from 0 to n-1 (n is
the total number of characters in the string).
• In this chapter, we will see techniques of string
manipulation.

String Creation
• String can be created in following ways-
1. By assigning value directly to the variable
String Literal

2. By taking Input

Input ( ) always return input in


string form.

Traversal of a string
• Process to access each and every character of a string
for the purpose of display or for some other purpose is
called string traversal.
Output

Program to print a String after reverse -

String Operators
• There are 2 operators that can be used to work upon
strings + and *.
»+ (it is used to join two strings)
• Like - “tea” + “pot” will result into “teapot”
• Like- “1” + “2” will result into “12”
• Like – “123” + “abc” will result into “123abc”

»* (it is used to replicate the string)


• like - 5*”@” will result into “@@@@@”
• Like - “go!” * 3 will result “go!go!go!”

note : - “5” * “6” expression is invalid.

Membership Operators in Strings
• 2 membership operators works with strings are in and not in.
To understand the working of these operators, look at the
given examples -
• in operator results into True or False. Like-
– “a” in “Sanjeev” will result into True.
– “ap” in “Sanjeev” will result into False.
– “anj” in “Sanjeev” will result into True.
• not in operator also results into True or False. Like-
– “k” not in “Sanjeev” will result into True.
– “ap” not in “Sanjeev” will result into True.
– “anj” not in “Sanjeev” will result into False.

String Comparison Operators
• Look carefully at following examples -
• “a” == “a” True
• “abc”==“abc” True
• “a”!=“abc” True
• “A”==“a” False
• “abc” ==“Abc” False
• ‘a’<‘A’ False (because Unicode value of lower case is higher than upper case)

How to get Ordinal/Unicode Values?


• Look at following examples-
>>>ord (‘A’) >>>char(97)
65 a
>>>ord(‘a’) >>>char(65)
97 A

String Slicing
• Look at following examples carefully-
Index 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13
Word R E S P O N S I B I L I T Y
Reverse index -14 -13 -12 -11 -10 -9 -8 -7 -6 -5 -4 -3 -2 -1

word = “RESPONSIBILITY”
word[ 0 : 14 ] will result into‘RESPONSIBILITY’
word[ 0 : 3] will result into‘RES’
word[ 2 : 5 ] will result into‘SPO’
word[ -7 : -3 ] will result into‘IBIL’
word[ : 14 ] will result into‘RESPONSIBILITY’
word[ : 5 ] will result into ‘RESPO’
word[ 3 : ] will result into ‘PONSIBILITY’
