we know that function has rich set of built in functions in python, so the answer is off course their is a functions in python to join a list of strings to a single string .as the name suggest join() is the function in python to join a list of strings to a single string.Let we check the syntax of join().
string.join(list)
where string is the separator string and list is a list of strings
item= [‘ Hello’, ‘good morning ‘]
string = ‘,’.join(item)
print(string)
Fortunately we have split() built-in function in python to split a string in to a list of strings .we can define any separator, anyway default separator is any whitespace. so by default spilt() function split a string in to a list of strings based on any whitespace.
string.split(separator, maxsplit)
separator : It is an optional parameter, if we specify based on the separator value split a string in to a list of strings
maxsplit: It is also optional parameter, it specify how many number of splits to , by default it is all the occurrence.
Hello_string = ” Hello, good morning ”
myitem = Hello_string.split(“, “)
print(myitem)
We have remove in os to delete a file in Python
os.remove(file_name)
import os
os.remove("employee.csv")
print("employee.csv deleted using command to delete a file in Python")
Like other programming language python does not support = operation to copy an objects,instead it creates a new variable that shares the reference of the original object.Fortunately we have copy module in python copy an object to a variable.Their are two ways to use copy module in python.They are Shallow Copy and Deep Copy .
Deep copy is one of the way copy module in python,in Deep copy process a copy of object is copied in other object.so whatever the change we make on the Deep copy object it will not reflect in the original object.Deep copy copies all values recursively from source to target object. First constructing a new collection object and then recursively populating it with copies of the child objects found in the original
import copy
# initializing item1
item1 = [7, 12, [9,50], 14]
# using deep copy to copy item1
item2 = copy.deepcopy(item1 )
# original elements of item1
print ("Orignal item1 ")
for i in range(0,len(item1)):
print (item1[i],end=" ")
# adding and element to item2
item2[2][0] = 69
print("\r")
print ("Deep copy result item2")
for i in range(0,len( item2 )):
print (item2[i],end=" ")
print("\r")
print ("After copying Deep copy Orignal item1 ")
for i in range(0,len( item1)):
print (item1[i],end=" ")
shallow copy is a way in which a reference of object is copied in other object. so any changes made to a shallow copy of object do reflect in the original object.shallow copy is done with “copy()” function.
import copy
# initializing item1
item1 = [7, 12, [9,50], 14]
# using deep copy to copy item1
item2 = copy.copy(item1 )
# original elements of item1
print ("Orignal item1 ")
for i in range(0,len(item1)):
print (item1[i],end=" ")
# adding and element to item2
item2[2][0] = 69
print("\r")
print ("Shallow copy result item2")
for i in range(0,len( item2 )):
print (item2[i],end=" ")
print("\r")
print ("After copying Shallow copy Orignal item1 ")
for i in range(0,len( item1)):
print (item1[i],end=" ")
