Python comes with numerous ways of formatting strings:
New style .format(), which supports a rich formatting mini-language:
>>> temperature = 10
>>> print("the furnace is now {} degrees!".format(temperature))
the furnace is now 10 degrees!
Old style % format specifier:
>>> print("the furnace is now %d degrees!" % temperature)
the furnace is now 10 degrees!
In Py 3.6 using the new f"" format strings:
>>> print(f"the furnace is now {temperature} degrees!")
the furnace is now 10 degrees!
Or using print()s default separator:
>>> print("the furnace is now", temperature, "degrees!")
the furnace is now 10 degrees!
And least effectively, construct a new string by casting it to a str() and concatenating:
>>> print("the furnace is now " + str(temperature) + " degrees!")
the furnace is now 10 degrees!
Or join()ing it:
>>> print(' '.join(["the furnace is now", str(temperature), "degrees!"]))
the furnace is now 10 degrees!
