Python Fstring formatting

  • f - string is the latest python string formatting addition, added in 3.5
    • an f-string is created by prefixing the string with a f e.g.

      f"this is a f-string"

Examples of f-strings

  • numbers f'{value:{width}.{precision}f}'

     a= 10.1234
     >>> f'{a:.2f}'
     '10.12'
    
    
    >>> f'{a*1000:,.2f}'
    '10,123.40'
    
    >>> f'{75.765367:.0f}'
    '76'
  • date

    >>> f'test-{datetime.datetime.now():%Y-%m-%d_%H:%M:%S}.txt'
    'test-2019-01-29_17:53:37.txt'
  • unix date time stamp ( seconds since 1970-01-01 )

    f"{datetime.datetime.utcnow():%s}"
  • timestamp with timezone

    tz = datetime.timezone.utc
    ft = "%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S%z"
    t = datetime.datetime.now(tz=tz).strftime(ft)
    print(f"== Summary {t} ==")
