Python | Add one string to another

Concatenation of two strings have been discussed multiple times over various languages. But the task of adding one string to other is quite easy task in Python. Knowledge of performing this task has many application. Let’s discuss certain ways in which this can be performed.

Method #1 : Using += operator

This operator can be used to perform this particular task of concatenating the string. This is quite simpler than the traditional methods that are employed in other languages, like using a dedicated function to perform this particular task.

# Python code to demonstrate 
# Adding one string to another 
# Using += operator 
  
# initializing string  
test_string = "GFG"
  
# initializing add_string 
add_string = " is best"
  
# printing original string  
print("The original string : " + str(test_string)) 
  
# printing original add string  
print("The add string : " + str(add_string)) 
  
# Using += operator 
# adding one string to another  
test_string += add_string 
  
# print result 
print("The concatenated string is : " + test_string) 

Output :

The original string : GFG
The add string :  is best
The concatenated string is : GFG is best

Method #2 : Using join()

One can also perform this very task of the concatenation of string using the join function. The advantage this method holds over the above method is when we have many strings to concatenate rather than just two.

# Python code to demonstrate 
# Adding one string to another 
# Using join() 
  
# initializing string  
test_string = "GFG"
  
# initializing add_string 
add_string = " is best"
  
# printing original string  
print("The original string : " + str(test_string)) 
  
# printing original add string  
print("The add string : " + str(add_string)) 
  
# Using join() 
# adding one string to another  
res = "".join((test_string, add_string)) 
  
# print result 
print("The concatenated string is : " + res) 

Output :

The original string : GFG
The add string :  is best
The concatenated string is : GFG is best
