This can be any data type such as an integer, a float, a list, etc.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>encoding<\/strong>: encoding is an optional parameter that specifies the encoding to be used when converting the object to a string. Encoding is used to represent the data in a specific format such as utf-8, ascii, etc. The default value is &#8216;utf-8&#8217;.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>errors<\/strong>: errors is also an optional parameter that specifies how to handle errors during the conversion. The default value is &#8216;strict&#8217;.Other options include &#8216;ignore&#8217; and &#8216;replace&#8217;.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Str in python examples<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"256\" src=\"https:\/\/naiveskill.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/2-9-1024x256.webp\" alt=\"python str function example\" class=\"wp-image-36593\" srcset=\"https:\/\/naiveskill.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/2-9-1024x256.webp 1024w, https:\/\/naiveskill.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/2-9-300x75.webp 300w, https:\/\/naiveskill.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/2-9-768x192.webp 768w, https:\/\/naiveskill.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/2-9-150x38.webp 150w, https:\/\/naiveskill.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/2-9.webp 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>In this session, we will understand the str function with various examples.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Python str function to convert integer<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Python str function can convert an integer to a string value. let&#8217;s take the below example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"EnlighterJSRAW\" data-enlighter-language=\"generic\" data-enlighter-theme=\"\" data-enlighter-highlight=\"\" data-enlighter-linenumbers=\"\" data-enlighter-lineoffset=\"\" data-enlighter-title=\"\" data-enlighter-group=\"\">number = 45\nnumber_str = str(number)\nprint(number_str)\nprint(type(number))\nprint(type(number_str))<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>The first line creates an integer variable named <code>number<\/code> with a value of 45. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The second line converts the integer value of <code>number<\/code> to a string using the <code>str()<\/code> function, and assigns it to the variable <code>number_str<\/code>. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The third line uses the <code>print()<\/code> function to output the value of <code>number_str<\/code>, which is &#8220;45&#8221;. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The fourth line uses the <code>print()<\/code> function with the <code>type()<\/code> function to output the data type of <code>number<\/code>, which is <code>&lt;class 'int'&gt;<\/code>, indicating that it is an integer. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The fifth line uses the <code>print()<\/code> function with the <code>type()<\/code> function to output the data type of <code>number_str<\/code>, which is <code>&lt;class 'str'&gt;<\/code>, indicating that it is a string.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"604\" height=\"178\" src=\"https:\/\/naiveskill.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image-27.png\" alt=\"Python str function to convert integer\" class=\"wp-image-36587\" srcset=\"https:\/\/naiveskill.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image-27.png 604w, https:\/\/naiveskill.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image-27-300x88.png 300w, https:\/\/naiveskill.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image-27-150x44.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 604px) 100vw, 604px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Python str function to convert float<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>similar to integer a user can also use the <strong>str() <\/strong>function to convert the float data type.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"EnlighterJSRAW\" data-enlighter-language=\"generic\" data-enlighter-theme=\"\" data-enlighter-highlight=\"\" data-enlighter-linenumbers=\"\" data-enlighter-lineoffset=\"\" data-enlighter-title=\"\" data-enlighter-group=\"\">number = 32.88\nnumber_str = str(number)\nprint(number_str)\nprint(type(number))\nprint(type(number_str))<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>The above codes convert the float to string values.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"610\" height=\"192\" src=\"https:\/\/naiveskill.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image-28.png\" alt=\"Python str function to convert float\" class=\"wp-image-36588\" srcset=\"https:\/\/naiveskill.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image-28.png 610w, https:\/\/naiveskill.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image-28-300x94.png 300w, https:\/\/naiveskill.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image-28-150x47.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 610px) 100vw, 610px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Python str function with encoding<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>While converting any data type to string we can also pass the <strong>encoding<\/strong> and <strong>error<\/strong> parameters. Let&#8217;s take the below example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"EnlighterJSRAW\" data-enlighter-language=\"generic\" data-enlighter-theme=\"\" data-enlighter-highlight=\"\" data-enlighter-linenumbers=\"\" data-enlighter-lineoffset=\"\" data-enlighter-title=\"\" data-enlighter-group=\"\">data = b'Hello, World!'\nstring_data = str(data, encoding='utf-8', errors='ignore')\nprint(string_data) # \"Hello, World!\"<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>In this example, the <code>str()<\/code> function is used to convert a bytes object <code>data<\/code> which contains a byte sequence to a string, with the <code>encoding<\/code> parameter set to &#8216;utf-8&#8217; and the <code>errors<\/code> parameter set to &#8216;ignore&#8217;. This will ignore any errors that occur during the conversion and return the string &#8220;Hello, World!&#8221;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">__str__ in python<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When an object is converted to a string using the str() function, the <strong>str<\/strong> method is called to determine the string representation of the object.<br><strong>str<\/strong> is a special method in Python that is used to define how an object should be represented as a string.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The <strong>str<\/strong> method takes no arguments and returns a string. we can customize this by defining our own <strong>str<\/strong> method. Let&#8217;s take the below example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"EnlighterJSRAW\" data-enlighter-language=\"generic\" data-enlighter-theme=\"\" data-enlighter-highlight=\"\" data-enlighter-linenumbers=\"\" data-enlighter-lineoffset=\"\" data-enlighter-title=\"\" data-enlighter-group=\"\">class TestClass:\n    def __init__(self, country):\n        self.country = country\n\n    def __str__(self):\n        return self.country\n\nobj = TestClass(\"UK\")\nprint(obj)\nprint(str(obj))<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>A class TestClass with <strong>init<\/strong> method which takes one argument &#8216;country&#8217; and assigns it to an instance variable self.country.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>An <strong>str<\/strong> method, which returns the value of the self.country attribute of the object. So when the obj instance is printed or passed to the str() function, it will return the value of the self.country attribute which is &#8220;UK&#8221;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>An instance of the class TestClass named obj and passed &#8220;UK&#8221; as an argument for the country parameter, which printed the obj and passed obj to the str() function. Both return the value of the self.country attribute which is &#8220;UK&#8221;.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Conclusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>I hope you have liked this brief tutorial on the python str function.
