method concatenates the elements of an iterable and returns the resultant string.
Parameters
1. iterable
| iterable
The iterable whose elements are to be concatenated.
Return value
A concatenated string of elements of the iterable.
Examples
Basic usage
To concatenate the elements of iterable x
using a comma separator:
x = ('a', 'b', 'c')separator = ','separator.join(x)
'a,b,c'
Note that the elements in tuple x
are concatenated with separator ','
in between each item.
TypeError
To concatenate the elements of iterable x
using a comma separator:
x = {1, 2, 3}separator = ','print(separator.join(x))
TypeError: sequence item 0: expected str instance, int found
A TypeError
is raised as there are non-string values in the iterable x
.
Usage with dictionaries
The join(~)
method will concatenate the keys of a dictionary rather than values:
cars = {"Ferrari": "red", "Porsche": "silver", "Bentley": "black"}separator = " > "separator.join(cars)
'Ferrari > Porsche > Bentley'
