python f"" code example

Example 1: f string in python

# f-strings are short for formatted string like the following
# you can use the formatted string by two diffrent ways
# 1
name = "John Smith"
print(f"Hello, {name}")		# output = Hello, John Smith

# 2
name = "John Smith"
print("Hello, {}".format(name))		# output = Hello, John Smith

Example 2: f string repr

# If you want to use repr in f-string use "!r"
# Normal behavior (using str)
>>> color = "blue\ngreen"
>>> day = datetime.date(2020, 6, 4)
>>> f"Color is {color} and day is {day}"
'Color is blue\ngreen and day is 2020-06-04'
# Alternate behavior (using repr)
>>> f"Color is {color!r} and day is {day!r}"
"Color is 'blue\\ngreen' and day is datetime.date(2020, 6, 4)"

Example 3: python f string

>>> name = "Eric"
>>> age = 74
>>> f"Hello, {name}. You are {age}."
'Hello, Eric. You are 74.'

Example 4: python fstring

#python3.6 is required
age = 12
name = "Simon"
print(f"Hi! My name is {name} and I am {age} years old")

Example 5: python f string

"""

An f-string stands for 'function-string' it's just used to work with 
strings more appropiately, they do the exact same job as concantenating
strings but are more efficient and readable.

"""
# Concantenating strings:

Age = "25"

print("I am "+Age+" years old.")

# Using f strings:

Age = 25

print(f"I am {Age} years old.")

# ^ notice the letter 'f' at the begining of the string.
# That defines the string as being an f-string.

# A third way of inputting variables into a string is by using
# .format()

Age = "25"

print("I am {} years old.".format(Age))

# If you had more than one variable:

Age = "25"
Name = "Jeff"

print("I am {} years old, and my name is {}.".format(Age,Name))

Example 6: python f string literal

# This answer might be long, but it explains more python f-strings, how to use them and when to use them.
# Python f-strings are used to write code faster.
# Here is an example:
name = "George"
age = 16
favorite_food = "pizza"

# Instead of doing this:
print("My name is", name, ", my age is", age, ", and my favorite food is", favorite_food)

# Or this:
print("My name is "+ name +", my age is "+ str(age)+ ", and my favorite food is "+ favorite_food)

# You could do this:
print(f"My name is {name}, my age is {age}, and my favorite food is {favorite_food}")

# You see that the code looks a little cleaner, and as you start using f-strings you realize you write much faster.
"""
Why put the f before the string, you ask?
Well if you didnt, the output would literally be {name} instead of the actual variable
One more thing: this is fairly new and only works with python 3.6 and higher.
