Comparing strings in python
Comparing strings is a common job in programming. We can compare two strings with a == operator. We can check the opposite with the non-equality != operator. The operators return a boolean True or False.
>>> if "abc" == "abc": # comparing with if print "abc equals abc" else: print "abc not equals abc" abc equals abc >>> print "aa" == "aa" # actual result will be returned in True and False True >>> print "aa" == "aaa" False >>> print 1==1 True >>> print 1==2 False
