field = 'KG Basin'

press = 5000 # psi

We use string formatting because it is lot easier than just simply using concatenation

# ugly method (Concatenation)

print('Reservoir pressure is' + ' ' + str(press) + ' ' + 'psi')

Reservoir pressure is 5000 psi

# Python 3

print('Reservoir pressure is {} psi'.format(press)) # does not matter that press is an integer value

Reservoir pressure is 5000 psi

# Python 3.6

print(f'Reservoir pressure is {press} psi')

Reservoir pressure is 5000 psi

# output required: Reservoir pressure in KG Basin is 5000 psi

# ugly method

print('Reservoir pressure in' + ' ' + field + 'is' + ' ' + str(press) + ' ' + 'psi')

Reservoir pressure in KG Basinis 5000 psi

# python 3 method

print('Reservoir pressure in {} is {} psi'.format(field, press)) # order is important

Reservoir pressure in KG Basin is 5000 psi

print('Reservoir pressure in {} is {} psi'.format(press, field))

Reservoir pressure in 5000 is KG Basin psi

print('Reservoir pressure in {field_name} is {pressure} psi'.format(pressure = press, field_name = field))

Reservoir pressure in KG Basin is 5000 psi

# python 3.6 method

print(f'Reservoir pressure in {field} is {press} psi')

Reservoir pressure in KG Basin is 5000 psi

# we can also change presure to any differet values!

# python 3 method

print('Reservoir pressure in {} is {} psi'.format(field, press+50))

Reservoir pressure in KG Basin is 5050 psi

# python 3.6 method

print(f'Reservoir pressure in {field} is {press+110} psi')

Reservoir pressure in KG Basin is 5110 psi
