Class XI Computer Science / Informatics Practices

Chapter: STRINGS IN PYTHON - Complete CBSE


Notes
1. Definition
A string is a sequence of characters enclosed in single, double or triple quotes. Strings are
immutable.

2. Key Features
• Ordered sequence of characters
• Positive and negative indexing
• Slicing supported
• Immutable data type
• Supports concatenation, repetition and membership operators

3. String Methods
Method Syntax Example Output

len() len(s) len('Python') 6


lower() [Link]() 'HeLLo' hello
upper() [Link]() 'hello' HELLO
title() [Link]() 'hello world' Hello World
count() [Link]('l') 'Hello' 2
find() [Link]('th') 'Python' 2
replace() [Link](a,b) Hello→Hi Hi
split() [Link]() 'A B' ['A','B']
join() '-'.join(s) ABC A-B-C
partition() [Link]('is') India is ('India','is','')
strip() [Link]() ' Hi ' Hi
startswith() [Link]('Py') Python True
endswith() [Link]('on') Python True
isalpha() [Link]() Python True
isdigit() [Link]() 123 True
isalnum() [Link]() ABC123 True
islower() [Link]() python True
isupper() [Link]() PYTHON True
istitle() [Link]() Hello World True
isspace() [Link]() ' ' True
4. Syntax & Examples
• Indexing: s='Python' → s[0]='P', s[-1]='n'
• Slicing: s[1:4] → yth
• Concatenation: 'Hello'+'World' → HelloWorld
• Repetition: 'Hi'*3 → HiHiHi
• Membership: 'Py' in 'Python' → True
• Reverse: s[::-1]

5. Important Exam Notes


✓ Strings are immutable.
✓ find() returns -1 if substring is absent.
✓ split() returns a list.
✓ join() joins iterable elements into a string.
✓ replace() returns a new string.

6. Practice Questions
1. Write a program to reverse a string.
2. Count vowels in a string.
3. Check whether a string is palindrome.
4. Count frequency of a character.
5. Differentiate indexing and slicing.

7. MCQs
1. Which method converts to uppercase? (a) upper() (b) lower() (c) title() (d) split() Answer: a
2. Which operator repeats a string? Answer: *
3. Which method returns a list? Answer: split()
4. Strings are: (a) Mutable (b) Immutable ✔
5. len('Python') = 6

8. Assertion-Reason
A: Strings are immutable.
R: Characters of a string cannot be modified using indexing.
Answer: Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation.

9. Case-Based Questions
A student enters 'Computer Science'. Write code to count spaces, convert it to uppercase, and
replace 'Science' with 'Programming'.
Answer:
s='Computer Science'
print([Link](' '))
print([Link]())
print([Link]('Science','Programming'))
