Concatenate strings and integers using str()

The str() function is used to convert the integer into a string. So after converting the integer to a string, we can concatenate the string and integer using + operator.

Syntax:

string + str(integer)

Here, a string is the input string and an integer is the integer value to be concatenated with the string.

Example 1:

# Consider the string
string1 = "Welcome to thisPointer"

# Consider the integer
value = 2022

# Concatenate string1 and value
newStr = string1 + str(value) 

print(newStr)

Output:

Welcome to thisPointer2022

Here, 2022 is the integer that is concatenated with the string – “Welcome to thisPointer”.

Example 2:

If you need space between strings and integers, you can use separator – ” “.

# Consider the string
string1="Welcome to thisPointer"

# Consider the integers
value1=2022
value2=12
value3=3

# Concatenate string1 and values
newStr = string1 + str(value1)+ str(value2)+ str(value3)

print(newStr)

# Concatenate string1 and values with space
newStr = string1 + " " + str(value1) + " " + str(value2) + " " + str(value3)

print(newStr)

Output:

Welcome to thisPointer2022123
Welcome to thisPointer 2022 12 3

Here, three integers are concatenated with the string – “Welcome to thisPointer” with and without spaces.

Concatenate strings and integers using % operator

%s is used to specify the string and %d is used to specify the integer type. So if we keep $s and %d together, we can concatenate string and integer.

Syntax:

"%s%d" % (string, integer)

Here, the string is the input string and integer is the integer value to be concatenated with the string.

Example 1:

# Consider the string
string1="Welcome to thisPointer"

# Consider the integer
value=2022

# Concatenate string1 and value
newStr = "%s%d" % (string1, value)

print(newStr)

Output:

Welcome to thisPointer2022

Here, 2022 is the integer that is concatenated with the string – “Welcome to thisPointer”.

Example 2:

If you need space between strings and integers, you can leave space between each specifier.

# Consider the string
string1="Welcome to thisPointer"

# Consider the integers
value1=2022
value2=12
value3=3

# Concatenate string1 and values
newStr = "%s%d%d%d" % (string1, value1,value2,value3) 

print(newStr)

# Concatenate string1 and values with space
newStr = "%s %d %d %d" % (string1,value1,value2,value3)

print(newStr)

Output:

Welcome to thisPointer2022123
Welcome to thisPointer 2022 12 3

Here, three integers are concatenated with the string – “Welcome to thisPointer” with and without spaces.

Concatenate strings and integers using format()

The format() function concatenates the variables in python using {} specifier. So we can concatenate string and integer.

Syntax:

"{}{}.format(string,value)

Here, the string is the input string and integer is the integer value to be concatenated with the string.

Example 1:

# Consider the string
string1="Welcome to thisPointer"

# Consider the integer
value=2022

# Concatenate string1 and value
newStr = "{}{}".format(string1, value)

print(newStr)

Output:

Welcome to thisPointer2022

Here, 2022 is the integer that is concatenated with the string – “Welcome to thisPointer”.

Example 2:

If you need space between strings and integers, you can leave space between each specifier.

# Consider the string
string1 = "Welcome to thisPointer"

# Consider the integers
value1 = 2022
value2 = 12
value3 = 3

# Concatenate string1 and values
newStr = "{}{}{}{}".format(string1, value1,value2,value3)

print(newStr)

# Concatenate string1 and values with space
newStr = "{} {} {} {}".format(string1, value1,value2,value3)

print(newStr)

Output:

Welcome to thisPointer2022123
Welcome to thisPointer 2022 12 3

Here, three integers are concatenated with the string – “Welcome to thisPointer” with and without spaces.

Concatenate strings and integers using f-strings

The f strings take two or more strings and concatenate them. It is possible to place the integers after the strings so that we can concatenate strings and integers.

Syntax:

f'{string}{value}'

Here, the string is the input string and integer is the integer value to be concatenated with the string.

Example 1:

# Consider the string
string1="Welcome to thisPointer"

# Consider the integer
value=2022

# Concatenate string1 and value
newStr = f'{string1}{value}'

print(newStr)

Output:

Welcome to thisPointer2022

Here, 2022 is the integer that is concatenated with the string – “Welcome to thisPointer”.

Example 2:

If you need space between strings and integers, you can leave space between each variable.

# Consider the string
string1="Welcome to thisPointer"

# Consider the integers
value1=2022
value2=12
value3=3

# Concatenate string1 and values
print(f'{string1}{value1}{value2}{value3}')

# Concatenate string1 and values
print(f'{string1} {value1} {value2} {value3}')

Output:

Welcome to thisPointer2022123
Welcome to thisPointer 2022 12 3

Here, three integers are concatenated with the string – “Welcome to thisPointer” with and without spaces.

Concatenate strings and integers within print() statement

Using a separator, we can concatenate string and integers within a single print() statement. It is important to separate each variable using a comma operator

Syntax:

print(string, value, sep="")

Here, the string is the input string and the integer is the integer value to be concatenated with the string.

Example 1:

# Consider the string
string1="Welcome to thisPointer"

# Consider the integer
value=2022

# Concatenate string1 and value
print(string1, value, sep="")

Output:

Welcome to thisPointer2022

Here, 2022 is the integer that is concatenated with the string – “Welcome to thisPointer”.

Example 2:

If you need space between strings and integers, you can assign a space(” “) to the sep parameter.

# Consider the string
string1="Welcome to thisPointer"

# Consider the integers
value1=2022
value2=12
value3=3

# Concatenate string1 and values
print(string1, value1,value2,value3 ,sep="")

# Concatenate string1 and values
print(string1, value1,value2,value3 ,sep=" ")

Output:

Welcome to thisPointer2022123
Welcome to thisPointer 2022 12 3

Here, three integers are concatenated with the string – “Welcome to thisPointer” with and without spaces.
