Aryan Kumar · Answer

In Python, a string is a sequence of characters enclosed within quotes, either single quotes ('...') or double quotes ("..."). Strings are one of the fundamental data types in Python and are used to represent text-based data.
my_string = "Hello, World!"
# output: Hello, World!
In the below example to separated strings containing the first name and last name concatenated to create a new string the full name. “+” operator is used to join two strings together with a space between them.
first_name = "Aryan"
last_name = "Kumar"
fullname = firstname+" "+ last_name
print(full_name)
#output: Aryan Kumar
There are three ways to introduce strings in python:
1. Single Quoted
2. Double Quoted
3. Triple Quoted
Regardless of whether you use single quotes ' or double quotes 
", the resulting strings are equal.
An error will occur if you try to insert a newline directly into a string enclosed by single or double quotes. To insert a newline, you need to use

.
Within a string enclosed in triple quotes, line breaks can be directly included without any additional escaping.

In Python, a string is a group of characters. It can be created by enclosing a sequence of characters within single quotes ('...'), double quotes ("..."), or triple quotes("…").and 
Example:
str = '''MindStick''' # Triple quotes
str1 = "MindStick"    # Double quotes
str2 = 'MindStick'    # Single quotes
print(str)
print(str1)
print(str2)			 # str, str1, str2 are equivalent
OUTPUT:
MindStick
str3 = '''Mind
Stick'''   			# Mulit-line String, not equivalent to str, str1, str2
OUTPUT:
Mind
Stick 
Strings are used to represent names, addresses, messages, etc. In python, we do not have a character datatype to represent a single character.and 
Also, we can access each character in a string using indexing. String indexing starts at 0, so the first character in a string is at index 0, the second character is at index 1, and so on. However, we can also use negative indexing to access characters from the end of the string. In negative indexing, the last character is at index -1, the second-to-last character is at index -2, and so on.
str = "MindStick"
c = str[-1]		#stores last character in the string
print(c)  
OUTPUT: 
k
