Python: Concatenation

In web development, programs use strings all the time. Everything we see on websites, in one way or another, is presented as text. This text is most often dynamic, i.e., it comes from different parts that are joined together.

To combine strings, you have to perform concatenation:

# The operator is the same as for adding numbers,
# but here it has a different meaning (semantics)
print('Dragon' + 'stone')  # => Dragonstone

Strings are always concatenated in the order in which the operands are written. The left operand becomes the left part of the string, and the right one becomes the right part. Here are a few more examples:

print('Kings' + 'wood')      # => Kingswood
print('Kings' + 'road')      # => Kingsroad
print("King's" + 'Landing')  # => King'sLanding

As you can see, strings can be concatenated even if they're written with different quotes.

Spaces are a character like any other, so how many spaces you put in a string is how many you get in the final string:

# Put a space in the left part
print("King's " + 'Landing')  # => King's Landing

# Put a space in the right part
print("King's" + ' Landing')  # => King's Landing
