join two strings python

var1 = "Hello"
var2 = "World"
 
# join() method is used to combine the strings
print("".join([var1, var2]))
 
# join() method is used here to combine
# the string with a separator Space(" ")
var3 = " ".join([var1, var2])
 
print(var3)

how to combine strings python

# The + operator can be used to concatenate two different strings.

x = "hello "
y = "world!"

# Concatenate two strings
print(x + y)
# OUTPUT: hello world!

python merge strings

my_list = ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd']
my_string = ','.join(my_list)
# Output = 'a,b,c,d'

python concatenate strings

x = ‘apples’
y = ‘lemons’
z = “In the basket are %s and %s” % (x,y)

combining strings in python

# concatenating strings just means combining strings together
# it is used to add one string to the end of another
# below are two exmaples of how concatenation can be used 
# to output 'Hello World':

# example 1:
hello_world = "Hello" + " World"
print(hello_world)

>>> Hello World

# example 2:
hello = "Hello"
print(hello + " World")

>>> Hello World

# This code snippet takes a string input and append suffixes based on a number of conditions
# Condtion:
#    1 if the lenght of the string is grater than 3 characters and is not already
#       ended with "ing" then add suffix "ing"
#    2 else if the lenght of the string is grater than 3 then add suffix "ly"
#
# The code snippet can be improved to include more business conditions.
