PythonHandling StringsString Overview

Welcome to Strings in Python

Strings are one of the most fundamental and commonly used data types in Python. They are used to represent textual data, such as names, messages, file contents, and JSON payloads. Python provides a rich set of tools, methods, and syntax to work with strings effectively.

Key Concept: Immutability Strings in Python are immutable, meaning they cannot be changed after they are created. Every operation that appears to “change” a string, like converting it to uppercase, actually creates and returns a brand new string.

Quick Demo
