print(x)
Output :- hello, and welcome to sach educational support!

Center() function in python

• Center():-The center() method will center align the string, using a specified character (space is default) as the fill character.

x = str.center(20, “A”)
print(x)
Output :- AAAAAAAporwalAAAAAAA

Count() function in python

• Count :- The count() method returns the number of times a specified value appears in the string.

For ex :- txt = “My name is Ayush”
print(txt.encode(encoding=”ascii”,errors=”backslashreplace”))
print(txt.encode(encoding=”ascii”,errors=”ignore”))
print(txt.encode(encoding=”ascii”,errors=”namereplace”))
print(txt.encode(encoding=”ascii”,errors=”replace”))
print(txt.encode(encoding=”ascii”,errors=”xmlcharrefreplace”))
Output:- b’My name is Ay\xe5sh
b’My name is Aush
b’My name is Ay\N{LATIN SMALL LETTER A WITH RING ABOVE}sh’
b’My name is Ay?sh’

Find() Function in python

• Find() Function in python:- The find() method finds the first occurrence of the specified value.The find() method returns -1 if the value is not found.The find() method is almost the same as the index() method, the only difference is that the index() method raises an exception if the value is not found.

For ex :- txt = “Hello, welcome to my world.”
x = txt.find(“e”)
print(x)
Output:- 1
• Index():- The index() method finds the first occurrence of the specified value.The index() method raises an exception if the value is not found.

For ex : a = “Hello world!”
b = “hello 123”
c = “mynameisAyush”

For ex: txt = “Hello, welcome to my world.”
x = txt.rfind(“e”)
print(x)
Output: 13

Parameter required is Either a dictionary, or a mapping table describing how to perform the replace
For ex:- txt = “Hi Sam!”;
x = “mSa”;
y = “eJo”;
mytable = txt.maketrans(x, y);
