Question Answer
Capitalizes first letter of string
start learning
capitalize()
Returns a string padded with fillchar with the original string CENTERED to a total of width columns.
start learning
center(width, fillchar)
Counts how many times str occurs in string or in a substring of string if starting index beg and ending index end are given.
start learning
count(str, beg = 0, end = len(string))
Decodes the string using the codec registered for encoding. encoding defaults to the default string encoding.
start learning
decode(encoding = 'UTF-8', errors = 'strict')
Returns encoded string version of string
on error, default is to raise a ValueError unless errors is given with 'ignore' or 'replace'.
start learning
encode(encoding = 'UTF-8', errors = 'strict')
Expands tabs in string to multiple spaces
defaults to 8 spaces per tab if tabsize not provided.
start learning
expandtabs(tabsize = 8)
Determine if str occurs in string or in a substring of string if starting index beg and ending index end are given returns index if found and -1 otherwise.
start learning
find(str, beg = 0 end = len(string))
Same as find(), but raises an exception if str not found.
start learning
index(str, beg = 0, end = len(string))
Returns true if string has at least 1 character and all characters are alphanumeric and false otherwise.
start learning
isalnum()
Returns true if string has at least 1 character and all characters are alphabetic and false otherwise.
start learning
isalpha()
Returns true if string contains only digits and false otherwise.
start learning
isdigit()
Returns true if string has at least 1 cased character and all cased characters are in lowercase and false otherwise.
start learning
islower()
Returns true if a unicode string contains only numeric characters and false otherwise.
start learning
isnumeric()
Returns true if string contains only whitespace characters and false otherwise.
start learning
isspace()
Returns true if string is properly "titlecased" and false otherwise.
start learning
istitle()
Returns true if string has at least one cased character and all cased characters are in uppercase and false otherwise.
start learning
isupper()
Merges (concatenates) the string representations of elements in sequence seq into a string, with separator string.
start learning
join(seq)
Returns the length of the string
start learning
len(string)
Returns a space-padded string with the original string left-justified to a total of width columns.
start learning
ljust(width[, fillchar])
Converts all uppercase letters in string to lowercase.
start learning
lower()
Removes all leading whitespace in string.
start learning
lstrip()
Returns a translation table to be used in translate function.
start learning
maketrans()
Returns the max alphabetical character from the string str.
start learning
max(str)
Returns the min alphabetical character from the string str.
start learning
min(str)
Replaces all occurrences of old in string with new or at most max occurrences if max given.
start learning
replace(old, new [, max])
Same as find(), but search backwards in string.
start learning
rfind(str, beg = 0, end = len(string))
Same as index(), but search backwards in string.
start learning
rindex(str, beg = 0, end = len(string))
Returns a space-padded string with the original string right-justified to a total of width columns.
start learning
rjust(width,[, fillchar])
Removes all trailing whitespace of string.
start learning
rstrip()
Splits string according to delimiter str (space if not provided) and returns list of substrings
start learning
split(str="", num=string. count(str))
split into at most num substrings if given.
Splits string at all (or num) NEWLINEs and returns a list of each line with NEWLINEs removed.
start learning
splitlines(num=string. count('\n'))
Determines if string or a substring of string (if starting index beg and ending index end are given) starts with substring str
returns true if so and false otherwise.
start learning
startswith(str, beg=0, end=len(string))
Performs both lstrip() and rstrip() on string
start learning
strip([chars])
Inverts case for all letters in string.
start learning
swapcase()
Returns "titlecased" version of string, that is, all words begin with uppercase and the rest are lowercase.
start learning
title()
Translates string according to translation table str(256 chars), removing those in the del string.
start learning
translate(table, deletechars="")
Converts lowercase letters in string to uppercase.
start learning
upper()
Returns original string leftpadded with zeros to a total of width characters
intended for numbers, it retains any sign given (less one zero).
start learning
zfill (width)
Returns true if a unicode string contains only decimal characters and false otherwise.
start learning
isdecimal()
Converts string into lower case
start learning
casefold()
Returns True if the string is an identifier
start learning
isidentifier()
Returns a tuple where the string is parted into three parts
start learning
partition()
Splits the string at the specified separator, and returns a list
start learning
rsplit()
Splits the string at the specified separator, and returns a list
start learning
rsplit()
Returns a tuple where the string is parted into three parts
start learning
partition()
Returns a tuple where the string is parted into three parts
start learning
rpartition()
Removes prefix.
start learning
. removeprefix()
Removes suffix.
start learning
. removesuffix()
