Is there a Python equivalent to template literals in JavaScript?
Question:
To provide a basic example, say I wanted to write:
name = str(input())
age = int(input())
print('Hi, {name}, you are {age}.')
In javascript, this would look like:
console.log(`Hi, ${name}, you are ${age}.`)
I assume there is no direct implementation of template literals in Python, as I haven’t found any mention on Google / DDG.
If I am correct in thinking that there isn’t a direct implementation, have any of you found workarounds? Thanks in advance.
Answers:
You can go with formatted string literals ("f-strings") since Python 3.6
f"Hi {name}, you are {age}"
Or string formatting
"Hi {}, you are {}".format(name, age)
"Hi {name}, you are {age}".format(name=name, age=age)
Or format specifiers
"Hi %s, you are %d" % (name, age)
