Here are some common String Methods or Attributes that you can use in modifying strings.<\/p>\n
Assuming x is the string:<\/p>\n
a. x.upper()\u00a0 – converts to upper case<\/p>\n
> x = ‘Free Linux Tutorials’
\n>>> x.upper()
\n‘FREE LINUX TUTORIALS’
\n>>> print(x)
\nFree Linux Tutorials
\n>>> y = x.upper()
\n>>> print (y)
\nFREE LINUX TUTORIALS<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/p>\n
b. \u00a0x.lower() = converts to lower case<\/p>\n
> print(x)
\nFree Linux Tutorials
\n>>> x.lower()
\n‘free linux tutorials’
\n>>> y = x.lower()
\n>>> print(y)
\nfree linux tutorials<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/p>\n
c. x.split() = to split strings<\/p>\n
> print(x)
\nFree Linux Tutorials
\n>>> x.split()
\n[‘Free’, ‘Linux’, ‘Tutorials’]<\/p>\n> x.split(‘r’)
\n[‘F’, ‘ee Linux Tuto’, ‘ials’]<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/p>\n
d. \u00a0len(x) = to get the length of strings or number of characters<\/p>\n
> print(x)
\nFree Linux Tutorials
\n>>> len(x)
\n20<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/p>\n
e. x.count() = count the number of times that the character\/words appear in the string<\/p>\n
x = ‘This These That Those’
\n>>> x.count(‘t’)
\n1
\n>>> x.count(‘T’)
\n4<\/p>\n>> x = ‘I love apples. We love apples. They love apples.’
\n>>> x.count(‘apples’)
\n3<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/p>\n
f. x.find() = to find character(s) in the string<\/p>\n
>> print (x)
\nI love apples. We love apples. They love apples.
\n>>> x.find(‘apples’)
\n7<\/p><\/blockquote>\nwhere 7 is the 7th position (from previous lesson, it always start with 0)<\/p>\n
>> x.find(‘We’)
\n15
\n>>> x.find(‘They love’)
\n31<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
x.find(‘apples’,7)
\n7<\/p><\/blockquote>\nbegin searching on 7th position (1st word apple is on 7th position)<\/p>\n
>> x.find(‘apples’,8)
\n23<\/p><\/blockquote>\nbegin searching on 8th position (1st word apple is excluded since it is on 7th position, so it starts counting on 8th)<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
g.\u00a0 .replace() = to replace characters(s)<\/p>\n
> print(x)
\nI love apples. We love apples. They love apples.
\n>>> x.replace(‘apples’,’oranges’)
\n‘I love oranges. We love oranges. They love oranges.’<\/p>\n>> x.replace(‘I’,’We’)
\n‘We love apples. We love apples. They love apples.’<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Here are some common String Methods or Attributes that you can use in modifying strings.
