str()
str() is a Python function in the Built-in Functions category. Returns a string representation of an object. The syntax is str(object=""). Parameters: object — any Python object. Returns: String. A typical example: str(42) # "42"
str([1, 2, 3]) # "[1, 2, 3]". A close sibling is print(), which prints objects to the text stream, separated by `sep` and followed by `end`. A close sibling is len(), which returns the length (number of items) of an object. Works with sequences, collections, and strings. A close sibling is range(), which returns an immutable sequence of numbers. Commonly used in for loops. A close sibling is type(), which returns the type of an object, or creates a new type with three arguments.
