Strings
A string is a group of one or more UNICODE characters in sequence. A letter, number,
space, or any other sign may be used as the character in this situation. One or more
characters can be enclosed in a single, double, or triple quote to produce a string.
Example –
>>> str1 = ‘Hello World!’
>>> str2 = “Hello World!”
Chap-7 DR AMISHA DALAL COMPUTER SCIENCE
>>> str3 = “””Hello World!”””
>>> str4 = ”’Hello World!”
Note – Python accepts single (‘), double (“), triple (”’) or triple(“””) quotes to denote string
literals. Single quoted strings and double quoted strings are equal. Triple quotes are used
for contain special characters like TAB, or NEWLINES.
Strings in Python Class 11 Notes
Accessing Characters in a String
A method known as indexing can be used to retrieve each individual character in a string.
The character to be retrieved in the string is specified by the index, which is enclosed in
square brackets ([ ]). The string has an index of 0 for the first character (counted from the
left) and n-1 for the last character, where n is the string’s length. We receive an IndexError
if we provide an index value outside of this range. A number must make up the index
(positive, zero or negative).
String is Immutable
A string is an immutable data type. It means that the contents of the string cannot be
changed after it has been created. An attempt to do this would lead to an error.
>>> str1 = “Hello World!”
#if we try to replace character ‘e’ with ‘a’
>>> str1[1] = ‘a’
TypeError: ‘str’ object does not support item assignment
Strings in Python Class 11 Notes
String Operations
A string is a group of letters and numbers. Concatenation, repetition, membership, and
slicing are just a few of the operations Python supports on the string data type. The
Chap-7 DR AMISHA DALAL COMPUTER SCIENCE
following subsections provide explanations of these procedures along with pertinent
examples.
Concatenation
To concatenate means to join. Python allows us to join two strings using concatenation
operator plus which is denoted by symbol +.
>>> str1 = ‘Hello’
>>> str2 = ‘World!’
>>> str1 + str2
Output:
Hello World!
Repetition
Python allows us to repeat the given string using repetition operator which is denoted by
symbol *.
>>> str1 = ‘Hello’
>>> str1 * 2
Output:
>>> str1 * 5
‘HelloHelloHelloHelloHello’
Membership
Python has two membership operators ‘in’ and ‘not in’. The ‘in’ operator takes two strings
and returns True if the first string appears as a substring in the second string, otherwise it
returns False.
In
>>> str1 = ‘Hello World!’
>>> ‘W’ in str1
True
>>> ‘Wor’ in str1
True
>>> ‘My’ in str1
False
Not In
>>> str1 = ‘Hello World!’
>>> ‘My’ not in str1
True
Chap-7 DR AMISHA DALAL COMPUTER SCIENCE
>>> ‘Hello’ not in str1
False
Slicing
In Python, to access some part of a string or substring, we use a method called slicing.
This can be done by specifying an index range. Given a string str1, the slice operation
str1[n:m].
>>> str1 = ‘Hello World!’
>>> str1[1:5]
‘ello’
>>> str1[7:10]
‘orl’
>>> str1[3:20]
‘lo World!’
>>> str1[7:2]
Strings in Python Class 11 Notes
Traversing a String
We can access each character of a string or traverse a string using for loop and while loop.
String Traversal Using for Loop:
>>> str1 = ‘Hello World!’
>>> for ch in str1:
print(ch,end = ”)
Hello World!
In the above code, the loop starts from the first character of the string str1 and
automatically ends when the last character is accessed.
String Traversal Using while Loop:
>>> str1 = ‘Hello World!’
>>> index = 0>>> while index < len(str1):
print(str1[index],end = ”)
index += 1
Hello World!
Here while loop runs till the condition index < len(str) is True, where index varies from 0 to
len(str1) -1.

String Methods and Built-in Functions
There are numerous built-in functions in Python that let us operate with strings. a few of
the most popular built-in functions for manipulating strings.
len()
Returns the length of the given string
>>> str1 = ‘Hello World!’
>>> len(str1)
12
title()
Returns the string with first letter of every word in the string in uppercase and rest in
lowercase
>>> str1 = ‘hello WORLD!’
>>> [Link]()
‘Hello World!’
lower()
Returns the string with all uppercase letters converted to lowercase
>>> str1 = ‘hello WORLD!’
>>> [Link]()
‘hello world!’
upper()
Returns the string with all lowercase letters converted to uppercase
>>> str1 = ‘hello WORLD!’
>>> [Link]()
‘HELLO WORLD!’
count(str, start, end)
Returns number of times substring str occurs in the given string. If we do not give start
index and end index then searching starts from index 0 and ends at length of the string.
>>> str1 = ‘Hello World! Hello
Hello’
>>> [Link](‘Hello’,12,25)
2
Chap-7 DR AMISHA DALAL COMPUTER SCIENCE
>>> [Link](‘Hello’)
3
find(str, start, end)
Returns the first occurrence of index of substring str occurring in the given string. If we do
not give start and end then searching starts from index 0 and ends at length of the string. If
the substring is not present in the given string, then the function returns -1
>>> str1 = ‘Hello World! Hello Hello’
>>> [Link](‘Hello’,10,20)
13
>>> [Link](‘Hello’,15,25)
19
>>> [Link](‘Hello’)
0
>>> [Link](‘Hee’)
-1
index(str, start, end)
Same as find() but raises an exception if the substring is not present in the given string
>>> str1 = ‘Hello World! Hello
Hello’
>>> [Link](‘Hello’)
0
>>> [Link](‘Hee’)
ValueError: substring not found

Handling Strings
In this section, we’ll discover how to use user-defined functions in Python to manipulate
strings in various ways.
Q. Write a program with a user defined function to count the number of times a
character (passed as argument) occurs in the given string.
#Program
#Function to count the number of times a character occurs in a
def charCount(ch,st):
count = 0
for character in st:
if character == ch:
count += 1
return count
st = input(“Enter a string: “)
ch = input(“Enter the character to be searched: “)
count = charCount(ch,st)
print(“Number of times character”,ch,”occurs in the string is:”,count)
Output:
Enter a string: Today is a Holiday
Enter the character to be searched: a
Number of times character a occurs in the string is: 3
