DETAILED ANSWERS WITH RATIONALES || 100%
GUARANTEED PASS <LATEST VERSION>
Floating-point Precision ......ANSWER........format specification
which indicates how many digits to the right of the decimal
should be included in the output of floating types
'{:.1f}'.format(1.725) produces 1.7
Replace (old and new parameters) ......ANSWER........returns a
copy of the string with all occurrences of the substring old
replaced by the string new; old and new arguments may be
string variables or string literals
,age 2 of 18
phrase.replace('one', 'two') will replace any occurrence of the
word one with two
Replace (old, new and count parameters)
......ANSWER........returns a copy of the string with all occurences
of the substring old replaced by the new except only replaces
the first count occurrences of old
Slice Notation ......ANSWER........my_str[start:end]
will create a substring from my_str index start through to end –
1
Slice Notation with Stride
......ANSWER........my_str[start:end:stride]
Field Width ......ANSWER........minimum number of characters that
must be inserted into a string
, age 3 of 18
my_str='{name:16}{goals:8}'
Alignment Character ......ANSWER........determines how a value
should be aligned within the width of the field
my_str='[name:<16}{goals:>8}{points:^6}'
Fill Character ......ANSWER........used to pad a replacement field
when the string being inserted is smaller than the field width
{score:0>4} produces 0018
phrase.replace('one', 'two', 5) will replace any occurrances of
'one' with 'two' but will begin looking at index 5
Find (with x variable) ......ANSWER........string method that returns
the index of the first occurrence of item x in the string, else
returns -1
