String formatting is the process of combining static text with dynamic values. Python offers several formatting methods, including %-formatting, the str.format() method, and f-strings (Python 3.6+), which allow you to easily generate formatted strings.

%-formatting

print("Hello, %s" % name)

str.format

print("Hello, {}".format(name))

f-strings (Python 3.6+)

print(f"Hello, {name}")

Example:

name = "John"
age = 30
formatted_string = f"My name is {name} and I am {age} years old."
print(formatted_string)  # Output: My name is John and I am 30 years old.
