String Formatting

Read Original

This article provides a detailed overview and comparison of the four primary string formatting techniques in Python: the old printf-style % operator, template strings from the string module, the str.format() method, and the modern f-strings (literal string interpolation). It explains the evolution, syntax, limitations, and specific use cases for each method, highlighting why f-strings became the popular favorite for readability and ease of use.
