|
Welcome back to Pandas Daily! Your daily 5-minute boost to becoming confident in Python. β I am sure when you print C:\new_folder your code breaks due to \. Or you wonder how to print single (It's) or double ("Hello") quotes. Enter Escape Sequences, tiny backslash commands in Python that fix all of this. π Most common uses:
β Let's Begin... β π \n Print in next line - the one we all know
In:
print("Hello\nWorld")
Out:
Hello World β π \t Print in tabular format
In:
print("Name\tAge") print("John\t25")
Out:
Name Age John 25 β π \ Backslash for windows file paths
In:
print("C:\Users\Admin")
Out:
C:\Users\Admin β πͺΆ ' Single and '' Double quotes
In:
print('It\'s Python time') print("He said \"Python is fun\"")
Out:
It's Python time He said "Python is fun" β π \u Unicode for symbols and emojis
In:
print("Ο") print("β€")
Out:
Ο β€ β β r" " Ignore escape sequences in strings
In:
print("C:\new_folder") print(r"C:\new_folder")
Out:
C: ew_folder C:\new_folder β βοΈ \r Rewrite on same line First "Loading" will print till process is running, and will be replaced by "Done"
In:
import time print("Loading...", end="\r") time.sleep(1) print("Done! ")
Out:
Done!
