5.7) Manipulating Strings
As with numbers, you can do operations on strings.
Let's see what happens if you add the string 'Hi' with 'There':
>>> greeting='Hi'+'There' >>> print greeting HiThere
This is what we call string concatenation. It’s like sticking strings together one after the other.
You can also multiply a string with an integer to repeat the string a number of times.
>>> print 'He'*5 HeHeHeHeHe
Note that although you can mix integers and floats in operations, you can’t mix numbers and strings:
>>> '1' + 4 Traceback (most recent call last): File "<pyshell#0>", line 1, in <module> '1'+3 TypeError: cannot concatenate 'str' and 'int' objects
