In Python, a string of required formatting can be achieved by different methods. Some of them are; 1) Using % 2) Using {} 3) Using Template Strings In this article the formatting using % is discussed. The formatting using % is similar to that of ‘printf’ in C programming language. %d – integer %f – float %s – string %x – hexadecimal %o – octal The below example describes the use of formatting using % in Python.
Python3
# Python program to demonstrate the use of formatting using % # Initialize variable as a string variable = '15' string = "Variable as string = %s" % (variable) print (string ) # Printing as raw data # Thanks to Himanshu Pant for this print ( "Variable as raw data = %r" % (variable)) # Convert the variable to integer # And perform check other formatting options variable = int (variable) # Without this the below statement # will give error. string = "Variable as integer = %d" % (variable) print (string) print ( "Variable as float = %f" % (variable)) # printing as any string or char after a mark # here i use mayank as a string print ( "Variable as printing with special char = %c" % (variable)) print ( "Variable as hexadecimal = %x" % (variable)) print ( "Variable as octal = %o" % (variable)) |
Output :
Variable as string = 15 Variable as raw data = '15' Variable as integer = 15 Variable as float = 15.000000 Variable as printing with special char = mayank Variable as hexadecimal = f Variable as octal = 17
