Does Python do variable interpolation similar to “string #{var}” in Ruby?

Question

In Python, it is tedious to write:

print \"foo is\" + bar + \'.\'

Can I do something like this in Python?

print \"foo is #{ba

Answer 1

Yes, absolutely. Python, in my opinion, has great support for string formatting, replacements and operators.
