String Operations and Mistake Finding

The document discusses various operations that can be performed on strings in Python like indexing, slicing, concatenation, repetition and membership testing. It provides examples of each operation and how to remove or swap characters from a string based on indexes. It also discusses built-in string methods and escape characters in strings.

UNIT-4

String,list,tuple,Dictionary
STRINGS
 String is sequence of characters are
surrounded by either single quotation marks,
or double quotation marks.
 String is immutable
 'hello' is the same as "hello".
 The element is accessed by positive or
negative indexing.
STRING LENGTH
 To get the length of a string, use
the len() function.
Example
 The len() function returns the length of a
string:
 a = "Hello, World!"
print(len(a))

 OUTPUT:12
FIVE OPERATIONS CAN BE
PERFORMED ON STRING
 Indexing
 slicing
 Concatenation
 Repetition
 membership
OPERATION 1: INDEXING
 A=‘hello’

#print second element from string A from


beginning
 print(A[1])
 Output: e

 print second last element from string A from


ending
 Print(A[-2])
 OUTPUT: l
OPERATION 2: SLICING
 Extract a part of a string using a concept
called Slicing.
 It is used to extract a specific part of a string
using a startIndex and an endIndex.

 The syntax for using the slice operation on a


string is:
[startIndex : endIndex : step]
EXAMPLE:
Example l4 = [1,4,6,22,44,12,55,66]

Slicing expression
 l4 [1:4] Output: [4,6,22]
 L4[3:-3] Output: [22,44]
 L4[3:] Output:[22,44,12,55,66]
 L4[:4] Output: [1,4,6,22]
EXAMPLES ON SLICING OPERATIONS
REMOVE THE FIRST AND LAST
CHARACTER FROM STRING
 a = ‘python’
 Print(a[1:-1])

 Output: ytho
SWAP THE FIRST AND LAST
CHARACTER FROM STRING
 A=‘active’
 A[0:1] #a
 A[-1] #e
 A[1:-1:1] #ctiv

 Concatenate: A[-1]+A[1:-1:1]+A[0:1]

 OUTPUT:ectiva
TYPE3: CONCATENATION
 Combining two string into one string.

 A=python
 B=programming

Ques: #DISPLAY ping from string A and b


 Print(a[0:]+b[-3:]
TYPE4: MEMBERSHIP
OPERATOR
 Membership Operators in and not in are used
to check whether a certain element exits
within a sequence such as string, list, tuple
or set.
The in operator returns True if the specified
element is found in the sequence.
Otherwise, it returns False
 The not in operator returns True if the
specified element is not found in the
sequence. Otherwise, it returns False
EXAMPLE:
TYPE 5: REPETITION
 use ( * ) operator to repeat a string several
times.
 a = "Mouse“

print(3 * a) # Output: MouseMouseMouse


print(a * 3) # Output: MouseMouseMouse
PROGRAM TO REMOVE
CHARACTER BASED ON INTEGER
 str=input("str: ")
 num=int(input("num: "))
 c=0
 if(len(str)>num):
 st=str[0:num]+str[num+1:]
 elif(len(str)==num):
 st=str[0:num]
 elif(len(str)<num):
 c=1
 if(c==0):
 print("output:",st)
 else:
 print("num should be positive, less than the length of str")
BUILT-IN STRING METHODS
ESCAPE OPERATOR
 Ques1:Remove the specific element from
string ‘Allahabad’ based on integer value
entered by user.
