Week 2 - Strings

# Methods # Methods are functions that belong to an object # Methods are specific to the data type for a particular variable sample_string = "I Love Programming" sample_string.islower()

temp = sample_string.lower() temp.islower()

sample_string.count('m') # count how many occurences of the letter 'm' in the string.

print(sample_string) print(sample_string[3]) sample_string.find('o') # find the index of the first occurence of 'o' in the string

# The format method for strings number_of_laptops = 27 print("Antonio has {} laptops.".format(number_of_laptops)) animal = "dragon" action = "fly" print("Does your {} {}?".format(animal, action))

# Exercise: fix a string some_quote = 'You\'ll do what you can do--and won\'t do what you can\'t do.' print(some_quote)

# Joey, Leslie, and Antonio have worked hard and generated some sales revenue for their company. # Calculate and print the total sales from the data provided. # Print out a string of the form "Total sales: xxx", where xxx will be the actual total # You’ll need to change the type of the input data in order to calculate that total. joey_sales = "121" leslie_sales = "105" antonio_sales = "110" # TODO: Print a string with this format: Total sales: xxx total_sales = int(joey_sales) + int(leslie_sales) + int(antonio_sales) print("Total Sales: " + str(total_sales))
