CODE 1
string = "pawan is a good" # 'is' separator is found print(string.partition('is ')) # 'not' separator is not found print(string.partition('bad ')) string = "pawan is a good, isn't it" # splits at first occurrence of 'is' print(string.partition('is')) |
Output:
('pawan ', 'is ', 'a good')
('pawan is a good', '', '')
('pawan ', 'is', " a good, isn't it")
CODE2
string = "geeks is a good" # 'is' separator is found print(string.partition('is ')) # 'not' separator is not found print(string.partition('bad ')) string = "geeks is a good, isn't it" # splits at first occurrence of 'is' print(string.partition('is')) |
Output:
('geeks ', 'is ', 'a good')
('geeks is a good', '', '')
('geeks ', 'is', " a good, isn't it")
