String functions

< str> .join()

If the string based iterator is a string then < str>
is inserted after every character of the string.

Salil Kumar Verma, PGT IT, J N V Adilabad Functions 12/15

String functions

< str> .join()

If the string based iterator is a string then < str>
is inserted after every character of the string.
If the string based iterator is a list or tuple of a
strings then, the given string/character is joined
with each member of the list or tuple, But the
tuple or list must have all member as strings.

String functions..

< str> .split()

If you do not provide any argument to split then by
default it will split the given string considering
whitespace as a separator.

Salil Kumar Verma, PGT IT, J N V Adilabad Functions 13/15

String functions..

< str> .split()

If you do not provide any argument to split then by
default it will split the given string considering
whitespace as a separator.
If you provide a string or a character as an
argument to split(), then the given string is divided
into parts considering the given string/character as
separator and separator character is not included in
the split strings.

String functions..

< str> .replace()

It replaces a string by a given string

Using random Module

random module provides random-number generators.
To use random number generators in your Python
program, you first need to import module random using
import command.

random module

Using random Module

random module provides random-number generators.
To use random number generators in your Python
program, you first need to import module random using
import command.
random(): It returns floating point number N in
the range [0.0,1.0), i.e. 0.0 ≤ N < 1.0
