Chapter 8.3, Problem 11CP

Explanation of Solution

Operator “in”:

  • • In Python, operator “in” determines whether one string is contained in another string.
  • • The format of “in” operator includes two strings.

Syntax:

The syntax for iteration using operator “in” loop is shown below:

Explanation:

In the above syntax,

  • • The “string1” denotes the first string, and “string2” denotes the second string.
  • • The expression returns true if “string1” is found in “string2”.

Example Program:

#Assign string to variable

text = 'mystring'

#If “d” is in string

if 'd' in text:

         #Display message

         print('The string "d" was found...
