94) The %e, %f, and %g formats display floating-point numbers in different ways, as the following interaction demonstrates
95) The find method finds a substring within a larger string
96) The lower method returns a lowercase version of the string
97) The replace method returns a string where all the occurrences of one string have been replaced by another
98) The strip method returns a string where whitespace on the left and right (but not internally) has been stripped (removed)
99) The syntax for using the format operator is as follows
100) To check whether a value can be found in a sequence, you use the in operator
101) To clear or remove a string, you assign an empty string or use the del statement, respectively
102) To ignore the difference between uppercase and lowercase letters, use the string methods upper or lower
103) To write a string that spans several lines, you can use triple quotes instead of ordinary quotes
104) Token splitting and delimiter joining
105) Translate replaces parts of a string, translate only works with single characters
106) Triple Quotes
107) Unicode Strings
108) Unicode to normal
109) Use the string format operator ( % ), or put all of the substrings in a list, and using one join() call to put them all together.tx
110) Useful Values from the string Module
111) Using None as an index has the same effect as a missing index
112) When either a starting or an ending index is missing, they default to the beginning or end of the string, respectively
