languages in existence. I fell in love with Python for its syntactic clarity. It's basically
executable pseudocode.

# You can find the length of a string
len("This is a string") # => 16
# .format can be used to format strings, like this:
"{} can be {}".format("Strings", "interpolated") # => "Strings can be interpolated"
# You can repeat the formatting arguments to save some typing.
"{0} be nimble, {0} be quick, {0} jump over the {1}".format("Jack", "candle stick")
# => "Jack be nimble, Jack be quick, Jack jump over the candle stick"
# You can use keywords if you don't want to count.
"{name} wants to eat {food}".format(name="Bob", food="lasagna") # => "Bob wants to eat lasagna"
# If your Python 3 code also needs to run on Python 2.5 and below, you can also
# still use the old style of formatting:
"%s can be %s the %s way" % ("Strings", "interpolated", "old") # => "Strings can be interpolated the old way"
# You can also format using f-strings or formatted string literals (in Python 3.6+)
name = "Reiko"
f"She said her name is {name}." # => "She said her name is Reiko"
